Professional Scrum Master I (PSM I) — Question 99

What is the Product Owner responsible for during the Sprint Retrospective? (Choose the best answer.)

Answer options

• A. Participating as a Scrum Team member.
• B. Summarizing and reporting the discussions to the stakeholders that they represent in the Scrum Team.
• C. Capturing requirements for the Product Backlog.
• D. The Product Owner should not take part in Sprint Retrospectives.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because the Product Owner is indeed a member of the Scrum Team and should actively participate in the Sprint Retrospective to contribute to team improvement. Option B is incorrect since summarizing discussions is not primarily the Product Owner's responsibility during this event. Options C and D are also wrong as capturing requirements is part of the Product Backlog management and not relevant to the Retrospective, and the Product Owner should participate in the meeting.
