A Developer Must Help Their Client Learn To Be a Product Owner
As developers, especially those who freelance and work one on one with clients we sometimes have to help that client understand what we expect of them as a \"Product Owner\".
As a freelance developer, my relationship with clients extends far beyond coding. The engagement is educational, helping clients become efficient product owners, understand the value of iterative development, and adopt a proactive approach to Quality Assurance (QA). Also on my end making sure I really understand their domain, their goals and help break down those goals into realistic achievable features.
While I may get paid to code, my ultimate goal is to build the right features. And this is rarely if ever exactly what the Product owner expected.
