Why you should go for a PSPO Certification
PSPO (Professional Scrum Product Owner) encompasses more than writing requirements and managing a product backlog. Scrum is a set of meetings, tools, and roles that work in concert to help teams structure and manage their work efficiently. A product owner is the lead user of the system or a team who is well-attuned to the market, the product, and the expectations from the product. Launching a Product in the marketplace involves planning, managing the budget, understanding all product management aspects that drive value from the product, working with the company stakeholders and understanding the customer needs and requirements. This is where a PSPO adds credibility to the whole process, by providing structure and working as the backbone of project management for companies.
Over 90% of the companies today rely on the Professional Scrum Product Owner to add value to an Agile project. Organizations like Siemens, PwC, CISCO, ANZ, FedEx, VMware, and many more are following the Agile way of working which empowers the workforce and helps them decide where to work, how to work and when to work with maximum flexibility and minimum constraints. This has enhanced the value of the PSPO certification as a result of which today there are more than 44000 PSPO holders around the globe, making it among the most in-demand Scrum certifications.
A PSPO course will help individuals and organizations understand how to tune into the requirements of the project as a team and maximize product value by making it cost and quality-efficient.
