Backlog Refinement and Cleanup
😰 Problem
As a product manager or member of an Agile team, understanding how to manage and prioritize your product backlog is crucial. Ideally, your product backlog should be a list of every product-related task your team needs to complete next, along with everything they can and should focus on (within a defined time frame) afterward. It is very important to see the results of prioritization in your team’s task tracker and to remove non-profitable and outdated tasks.
