Exam PSM II topic 1 question 39 discussion

Actual exam question from Scrum's PSM II
Question #: 39
Topic #: 1
[All PSM II Questions]

Steven is a Scrum Master for three different teams building a single product from the same Product Backlog. Development Team members from each team have approached Steven complaining that their teams need Nicole, an external specialist, to commit full time for their next Sprint.
Which three acceptable solutions would Steven consider? (Choose three.)

  • A. For Sprints that require Nicole's expertise for more than one team, combine the teams into one and separate when they no longer need to share her services.
  • B. Investigate whether applying additional techniques or frameworks for scaling Scrum would be appropriate for this product team in the future, since you have multiple Scrum Teams working on the same product, with dependencies between the teams.
  • C. People from the Development Teams with an interest in Nicole's domain could volunteer to take on this work in their respective teams.
  • D. Ask Nicole for a plan to hire and train additional people in her domain, and in the meantime work with the Product Owner and Development Teams to re- prioritize the work so that tasks not depending on Nicole can be done first.
  • E. Have the Development Team re-order the Product Backlog so Nicole can serve one team full-time in a Sprint.
  • F. Create a team with Nicole and people from the teams to temporarily work in Nicole's domain to serve the existing teams.

I think that E is incorrect because during the Sprint, Development Team does not re-order the Product Backlog items. They just re-order Sprint Backlog items if necessary.

Selected Answer: BCD
The product backlog is the responsibility of the product owner. under no circumstances can the members of the development team reprioritize the backlog without validation from the product owner. This is why proposition E is not a good answer. the correct answers are BCD

E is incorrect, the Development Team may not re-order the Product Backlog. Only PO can do that.

E is not correct because Product Backlog should always be ordered based on highest value items first, not individual availability. So I chose B, C, D.

First, A and F is incorrect Now B, C, D, E B and C look correct For D, firstly as a Scrum Master, you can't ask anyone to do the thing (need guide/coaching). Second, because the team has raised they will need Nicole for all time in next Sprint, meaning they don't have any tasks not relate to Nicole as well So should be B, C and E
