 |
| </p>
 |
| <ul class="noindent">
 |
| <li>
 |
| Define the features of the product;
 |
| </li>
 |
| <li>
 |
| Decide on release date and content;
 |
| </li>
 |
| <li>
 |
| Be responsible for the profitability of the product (ROI);

| Adjust features and priority every 30 days, as needed; and
 |
| </li>
 |

 |
| Accept or reject work results.

 |
| <p>
 |
| The product owner is responsible for the first of the three Scrum ceremonies&nbsp;:&nbsp;Sprint Planning
 |
| </p>
 |
| <p>
 |
| The Scrum Team looks at the prioritized Product Backlog and slices off the top priority items and commits to completing
 |
| them during a sprint. These items become the Sprint Backlog.
 |
| </p>
 |
| <p>
 |
| In return for the Scrum team's commitment to completing the selected tasks, the Product Owner commits that he or she
 |
| will not throw new requirements at the team during the sprint. Requirements are allowed to change but only outside the
 |
| sprint. Once the team starts on a sprint it remains maniacally focused on the goal of that sprint.
