A product owner feels that the last sprint failed to sufficiently deliver what was valuable to their organization's overall project goals. What should the scrum master mention at the next retrospective?
A.
Solutions to project problems that were built into the last sprint
B.
Problems that arose
C.
Solutions that saved the organizations the most time and money
A - Correct
From The Scrum Guide:
“Sprint Retrospective
The purpose of the Sprint Retrospective is to plan ways to increase quality and effectiveness.
The Scrum Team inspects how the last Sprint went with regards to individuals, interactions, processes, tools, and their Definition of Done. Inspected elements often vary with the domain of work. Assumptions that led them astray are identified and their origins explored. The Scrum Team discusses what went well during the Sprint, what problems it encountered, and how those problems were (or were not) solved.”
B = correct.
According to the Scrum Guide:
The purpose of the Sprint Retrospective is to plan ways to increase quality and effectiveness.
The Scrum Team inspects how the last Sprint went with regards to individuals, interactions, processes, tools, and their Definition of Done. Inspected elements often vary with the domain of work. Assumptions that led them astray are identified and their origins explored. The Scrum Team discusses what went well during the Sprint, what problems it encountered, and how those problems were (or were not) solved.
The Scrum Team identifies the most helpful changes to improve its effectiveness. The most impactful improvements are addressed as soon as possible. They may even be added to the Sprint Backlog for the next Sprint.
B. As it question bout : failed to sufficiently deliver what was valuable to their organization's overall project goals - seems should highlight the problem to improve the next
The product owner feels that there was no real value added in the last sprint.
Two possibilities why this is the case:
- No value was added
- The product owner did not see the value
For the latter, the Product Owner maybe should be made aware of the value that was added by letting him know which problems were solved. Also 'what went well' should also be part of the retrospective.
I am sure it is not (C). But the other three makes sense to me.
Retrospective is the event to improve processess. It could/should evaluate decisions from the last retro.
A. Solutions to project problems that were built into the last sprint
> Answer about delivery = "built into the last sprint". It should be on iteration review.
B. Problems that arose
> As described in the question, there is definitely something wrong with the last iterations. Seems to be the best answer.
C. Solutions that saved the organization the most time and money
> Not clear. It can be both delivered items or points selected for improvement on the last retro.
D. Problems that were solved
> Hard to discuss. It can be both delivered items or points selected for improvement on the last retro.

A. Solutions to project problems that were built into the last sprint
B. Problems that arose
C. Solutions that saved the organization the most time and money
D. Problems that were solved
Retrospectives:
1. Inspect how the last Sprint went with regards to people, relationships, process, and tools;
2. Identify and order the major items that went well and potential improvements; and,
3. Create a plan for implementing improvements to the way the Scrum Team does its work.
A and C talks about solutions so we can eliminate it
D talks about problem that were solved, but last sprint failed
only C is remaining
