PMP Practice Question: Process — Agile, Hard
Your agile team has been working on a mobile application for eight months. During the current sprint review, stakeholders express significant disappointment with the user interface, saying it doesn't meet their expectations despite the team demonstrating completed user stories. The Product Owner is surprised by this feedback and insists the stories were implemented as written. Upon investigation, you discover that while the Product Owner wrote detailed acceptance criteria, they had not shared wireframes or mockups because they wanted to 'let the team be creative.' The team interpreted the stories differently than the Product Owner intended. This is the third sprint where similar misalignment has occurred. What should be done to prevent this recurring issue?
