Which of the following is NOT true of cross-functional teams? (choose the best answer)

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C

The Product Owner is responsible for maximizing the value of the product, and prioritization is key to that responsibility. Even though losing a short-term business opportunity may seem detrimental, the Product Owner's long-term focus is more in line with the Agile principle of delivering sustainable value. Supporting the Product Owner's prioritization fosters respect for the role and the overall Agile process.

I feel like A could be misleading. I mean, teams still rely on others outside their group sometimes, right?

I'm a bit unsure, but I remember a practice question that mentioned how cross-functional teams actually promote skill growth. So, maybe E is true?

I think option C might be the one that's not true. Cross-functional teams usually focus on collaboration rather than deep specialization.

This is a tricky one. All the options sound plausible. I'll need to really focus on understanding the core purpose and structure of cross-functional teams to determine which one is the outlier.

Okay, let me see. The key is to identify the option that doesn't align with the typical characteristics of cross-functional teams. I think I've got a strategy to approach this.
