User Group Meetings

Sessions where key business stakeholders, especially actual users and customers, meet with the Scrum team to share direct feedback on needs and expectations. Insights from these discussions shape acceptance criteria and inform the creation and refinement of epics.

Key Points

  • Participants include users, customers, and other business stakeholders relevant to the product.
  • Provide the Scrum team with direct input on user needs, priorities, and usability expectations.
  • Outputs commonly include well-defined acceptance criteria and epic-level insights for backlog planning.
  • Held early and periodically (e.g., discovery, backlog refinement, post-sprint reviews) and often facilitated by the Product Owner.

Example

A SaaS team hosts a monthly user group meeting with 12 customer representatives to review a prototype analytics dashboard. Feedback on must-have filters and performance expectations is captured and translated into acceptance criteria and an epic for Advanced Reporting, which is then prioritized in the product backlog.
