Take your Daily Scrum from a reporting session to true teamwork and consider why answering the obsolete 3 Daily Scrum questions negatively impacts that ambition.

El Product Goal es un objetivo a largo plazo que establece la dirección general para el equipo Scrum y se enfoca en el valor que se entregará al cliente. Por otro lado, el Sprint Goal es un objetivo específico que se establece para cada Sprint en particular. Tener ambos objetivos en un equipo Scrum es importante ya que proporcionan un enfoque claro, ayudan a tomar decisiones informadas, facilitan la colaboración y proporcionan transparencia. Además, un buen objetivo de producto debe responder a preguntas específicas sobre la visión, las necesidades del usuario y las métricas para medir el impacto.

La paradoja de Jevons, también conocida como la "paradoja del progreso", se refiere a la observación de que a medida que aumenta la eficiencia en el uso de un recurso, su consumo total puede aumentar en lugar de disminuir. Esta paradoja fue nombrada en honor al economista británico William Stanley Jevons, quien la identificó por primera vez en su libro "The Coal Question" en 1865. La paradoja de Jevons se aplica a una amplia gama de recursos, pero se ha utilizado con más frecuencia para describir el uso del combustible. La idea es que cuando se mejora la eficiencia energética de una máquina o dispositivo, el costo del uso de la energía disminuye, lo que puede estimular un aumento en el consumo total de energía. Esto se debe a que el ahorro en costos hace que el uso del recurso sea más accesible y, por lo tanto, puede aumentar la demanda.
