A user story is lacking the final designs, but the design department promises to deliver on day #2 of the upcoming sprint. The product owner of your Scrum team is fine with that and pushed to have the user story in the sprint backlog. What is your take?
There are many angles to this question. One could be that item is the top most item that the team should immediately start, or it may be a 3rd or 4th item in the Sprint Backlog that may start after couple of days into the Sprint. So I shall ask the team if they are fine with this and if they are fine, I will be okay because at the end the Development team to accept as a team. I also ask if Product Owner can provide a rough idea on the design so that Development team can proceed. I will also ask Product Owner on how he/she can avoid such issues in future, perhaps working with design team little advance before coming to Sprint planning and get the high level designs ready.
