Should the Scrum Team become involved in the product discovery process and, if so, how?
There are two principal reasons why a Scrum Team should be involved in the product discovery process as early as possible:
1. The sooner engineers participate in the product discovery process, the lesser the chances solutions will be pursued that are technically not viable or would not result in a return on investment.
2. Involving a Scrum Team early on ensures that the team and its Product Owner develop a shared understanding and ownership of what will be built. This helps significantly with allocating resources to the right issues, maximizing value for the customer, and mitigating investment risk by maximizing the amount of low value work not done.
Involving the Developers members early in the process ensures their buy-in, and the team’s willingness to participate in all phases of a product’s development. This motivates the team to participate when making changes necessary to accomplish the Sprint Goals defined for each Sprint or product release.
