Hi all,
I am a scrum master for a team that develops cloud api’s to support various other teams. I would like to facilitate a sprint review, however PO says that we would not require any sprint demo review, since there nothing visible we could show to the stakeholders.
I would like to understand what ways we can use to have the sprint review for teams where the work is not really visible.
Appreciate your inputs.
Thanks!
– do you have teams that use your APIs?
– do they use them to create value?
– is their market for the value they create static and unchanging?
If the answer to those questions is “Yes” then you have identified your customers, and the value you will get from a Sprint Review where you collaborate on the direction those APIs will take.
If the answer to those questions is “No” then perhaps the team should be working on something that does create value?
It’s okay to be part of a supporting value stream that helps the rest of the business to deliver value; this is covered in Team Topologies (complicated subsystem team) …
