Product Owner

There are thousands of decisions to do in any project ranging from approving small details to setting priorities for different business goals. The product owner has to be able to decide on these. For some very large changes approval from the sponsor or somebody else in the organisation may be required, but for the most part the product owner has to have the authority to decide. The product owner is not a traditional project manager position making sure that fixed requirements are fulfilled in fixed schedule and budget. The product owner has to be able to make decisions about the project just in time and these decisions have a very large impact on the project end results
