Professional Scrum Master II (PSM II) — Question 96

As a Scrum Master, you observe that the Product Owner is not collaborating with the Development Team effectively.
What action would you take?

Answer options

• A. Send the Product Owner to training.
• B. Nominate a proxy Product Owner.
• C. Act as the go-between.
• D. Coach the Product Owner.

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because coaching the Product Owner can help improve their collaboration skills and understanding of their role. Sending them to training (A) may not address the immediate issue, while nominating a proxy (B) removes the Product Owner from direct involvement, and acting as a go-between (C) does not foster the necessary collaboration.
