Question

The Daily Scrum always should take exactly 15 minutes. For example, if your team managed to do it in 5 minutes, you should spend 10 more minutes on some useful team activity like Product Backlog refinement, but not more. True or false?

Answer 1

Answer: True

Explanation: Scrum involves a team leader ( sometimes product owner) and team members. It usually involves a set of skills like being observant, knowledgeable, a complex problem solver, persistence, creativity e.t.c.

Since there is still time left the team should spend the time going through ‘Backlog refinement’ this is when the product owner and team members review the backlog to ensure it contains the appropriate items, which are of utmost need.
