Should a Scrum Team only work on a single Product Goal at any time?

  1. Yes, it should

  2. No, it can handle multiple goals

  3. It should if the Product Owner allows it

  4. Only for larger projects

The correct answer is: Yes, it should

A Scrum Team is designed to focus on a single Product Goal to ensure clarity, alignment, and effective delivery. This singular focus allows the team to concentrate their efforts and resources on achieving one objective, which in turn facilitates better collaboration and productivity. Working toward a single goal helps to prioritize tasks, manage risks effectively, and streamline communication within the team and with stakeholders. When a team focuses on multiple goals, it can lead to confusion, conflicting priorities, and diluted efforts, which may ultimately impact the quality and timeliness of the delivered product increment. The Scrum framework emphasizes adapting to change, but it still insists on a clear, shared objective that the whole team is rallying around at any given time. By maintaining a single Product Goal, teams can ensure that all their activities are aligned and that progress can be more easily assessed and measured.
