Actual exam question for Scrum's PSPO-II exam

Question #: 37
Topic #: 2

[All PSPO-II Questions]

You work as a Product Owner for a small company and your Scrum Team employee retention

rate has been falling. Data from exit interviews suggests that the Developers are:

. Frustrated by interruptions and low-value meetings.

. Feel that their work is not "meaningful."

You need to address this quickly, since the cost to train new Developers is very high in a small

organization like yours.

To increase the likelihood of improving the retention rate, what additional measurements should

you consider when determining improvements?

(choose the best answer)

AThe Innovation Rate, which is the ratio of new work to total work.

BThe On-Product Index, the ratio of product work to total work.

CEmployee Net Promoter Scores.

DAll of the above.

I vaguely recall that the Innovation Rate could indicate how much time is spent on new features versus maintenance. But I’m not sure if that directly relates to retention issues.

I feel like all these metrics could provide valuable insights, but I’m not confident about how they all tie together. Maybe choosing "All of the above" makes sense?

Hmm, the Innovation Rate and On-Product Index could also provide useful insights. I'll need to think carefully about which metrics would be most relevant and actionable for our situation.

I think we practiced a question about measuring productivity before. The On-Product Index could help us understand if the team is focused on valuable work, but I wonder if it’s enough on its own.

I remember we discussed the importance of measuring employee satisfaction, so Employee Net Promoter Scores might be a good choice. But I'm not entirely sure if it's the best option here.

The key seems to be finding ways to reduce interruptions and make the work more meaningful for the Developers. The metrics could help track progress, but I'm not sure which one would be best.
