Let’s take it one step at a time:</p> </div> <div class="component component--heading"> <h3 class="fnt-wt font-wt- fnt-mg font-mgn- fnt-ln font-lnh- heading" > 1. Gather and analyze data </h3> </div> <div class="component component--textblock "> <p>Collect as much data as possible, such as customer feedback, user testing information, and usage analytics. Look for places where users get stuck or drop out. These friction points will become items on the backlog. Drawing on previous sprint experiences may be helpful. This data will help you prioritize what needs to be worked on first. </p> <p>This should naturally be part of the company’s process. Customer success, support, and quality assurance are likely already collecting much of this information.</p> </div> <div class="component component--heading"> <h3 class="fnt-wt font-wt- fnt-mg font-mgn- fnt-ln font-lnh- heading" > 2.

Rather, “it should be a ritual your team establishes to provide feedback on potential work,” says Cruth. “Start with a weekly cadence where the backlog owner meets with the team to review upcoming tasks and adjust the frequency as needed.”</p> <p>There are some backlog grooming best practices you can follow: </p> <ul> <li><strong>Conduct effective backlog refinement meetings</strong>: Project managers should conduct these meetings often, using a detailed meeting agenda, such as the one in this <a data-event="clicked" data-uuid="94556d41-060" data-event-component="linkButton" data-event-container="textBlock" data-schema-version="1" data-product-key="jiraSoftware" data-label="meeting agenda template" data-label-english="meeting agenda template" href="/software/confluence/templates/meeting-notes">meeting agenda template</a>, to keep them running smoothly.

However, running a backlog refinement meeting can fall to a product owner, product manager, project manager, and/or Scrum master.</p> </div> <div class="component component--heading"> <h3 class="fnt-wt font-wt- fnt-mg font-mgn- fnt-ln font-lnh- heading" > Who typically attends backlog grooming sessions? </h3> </div> <div class="component component--textblock "> <p>The entire cross-functional team should attend these meetings. Their combined expertise can help craft stronger user stories. The meeting should include at least the following team members: </p> <ul> <li><strong>Session leader</strong>: This can be the product owner, project manager, or Scrum master. </li> <li><strong>Product team representatives</strong>: Leverage their deep product knowledge at these meetings. This is anyone on that team that helps build and maintain the product. </li> <li><strong>Delivery team</strong>: Team leaders can represent the team if it is large. </li> <li><p><strong>Quality assurance representatives</strong>: This team knows all the bugs and can add insight into what needs immediate attention.

Grooming the backlog focuses on the entire product and its roadmap, which is a long-term planning activity. Sprint planning only considers requirements for the next sprint, so it is a short-term planning activity. </p> </div> <div class="component component--heading"> <h3 class="fnt-wt font-wt- fnt-mg font-mgn- fnt-ln font-lnh- heading" > How long are backlog grooming sessions? </h3> </div> <div class="component component--textblock "> <p>Grooming sessions should occur regularly so they can be kept short. It is recommended to limit backlog grooming sessions to 60 minutes, but this can vary from team to team and company to company. However long the meeting is, it is vital to stick to the agenda so the meeting does not derail.</p> </div> <div class="article--social"> <div class="imkt-social-buttons-group"> <div
