What is a Product Owner? Following the Scrum Guide, the Product Owner owns the Backlog, breaking down epics into features and stories that hopefully fit into the next iteration and of course, the Product Owner is responsible for maximizing the product’s value. Besides that, the Product Owner has a lot of other tasks to juggle. How to avoid struggling? Not explained.

Building upon this maybe exaggerated interpretation, Nils will go beyond juggling and introduce Craftsmanship as the basic principle of OBI next’s understanding of the Product Owner’s role as a profession within „Digital Product Craftsmanship“ in the sense of a craftsman’s art.
