Scrum Mythbusters: The Product Backlog is maintained exclusively by the Product Owner

Is your Product Owner the only person who can make changes to the Product Backlog? Is your Development Team asking your Product Owner to write and order items on the Product Backlog? Is the Product Owner the only person with write-access to a Product Backlog in a digital tool like Jira?

In this episode, we tackle the myth in Scrum that the Product Backlog is maintained exclusively by the Product Owner.
