Raiffeisen International Bank, based in Vienna, Austria, invested time, effort, and support in our Agile transformation. We created a Scrum Master Learning Journey, pairing it with the Agile Coach Growth Wheel that we refined (adding items to make it more easily understandable (e.g., icons, colors, pairing descriptions with Scrum Master levels, etc.) These additions made it easier to show how trainings, classes, and workshops applied to the wheel and help the Scrum Master on their growth path.

However, when we researched a similar tool for the Product Owners, we entered an information desert. While information existed for waterfall-type roles (e.g., product managers, etc.,) little existed for the Product Owners specifically.

Working first with our Agile Coaches who worked closest with the Product Owners, we created the first draft of the Product Owner Growth Wheel. After nearly two years, we would like to share our results in hopes it may help you in your journeys.

We look forward to sharing and discussing this new tool with all of you.

Learning objectives:

• Easily explain the 5 main spokes of the Product Owner Growth Wheel
• Apply the detailed spokes to their current strengths and weaknesses
• Plot the areas where they would like to enhance
