Thank you for your feedback Paul and sharing your experience. Great to hear that having the product owner attend the Daily Scrum was helpful for you and that you managed to establish an effective product backlog refinement process. I’ve shared my thoughts on the latter in the post “When should Product Backlog Grooming Take Place?” btw.

In my “daily scrum” experience, we allowed the PO to attend (because our PO’s typical “available in listening mode” presence was not perceived as harmful, disruptive, or distracting) and after the team members shared with each other the answers to the 3 Qs, the team was generally ok with a quick request or announcement from the PO. Using your examples of a request for product backlog refinement or updating the product roadmap we generally handled those via recurring team sessions set up expressly for those activities, and occasionally in an ad hoc manner when members’ capacity permitted. And this practice seems consistent with the Scrum Guide’s guidance that…“The Scrum Team decides how and when refinement is done. Refinement usually consumes no more than 10% of the capacity of the Development Team. However, Product Backlog items can be updated at any time by the Product Owner or at the Product Owner’s discretion.”
