Of course, the product owner is supposed to approve user story acceptance tests before development starts...And, if it does, the acceptance test only covers the “happy path” needed to demonstrate the functionality at the sprint review
After a solution has been invented and validated with customer groups, Serial Innovators take the responsibility to gain political acceptance for the project, allowing it to move into execution—the firm’s formal NPD process. Actually, they start working the political acceptance process long before then, starting once they think they have found an interesting problem and are just themselves coming to understand it. Once the project has gained organizational acceptance, Serial Innovators find execution the easiest part of commercialization, because their companies typically have in place both formal processes to do this and project man-agers trained in facilitating projects through that process
Remote work has been growing in acceptance, but also in efficiency

Drawing on signaling theory, it examines the role of two types of signals that may act as enablers for market acceptance of innovative design: adherence to a national design tradition, and attention from experts and specialized media
Instead of getting engineers to build out the acceptance criteria laid out for them, get them to root for the hero instead...Break away from the habit of writing user stories and bulleted list of acceptance criteria. Stop demoing features and listing benefit statements
I assert that there are a few key practices in Scrum that must be there to say you are “doing Scrum:” Teams pull work from backlogs at their own pace Feedback is implemented at a higher priority than new development Defects are corrected at a higher priority than new development so that releases remain “potentially shippable” Sprints produce working functionality, not chunks of software An engaged product owner can convey the problems to solve for the team Arguably there are more criteria, like acceptance test plans, and sprint lengths must be 2 – 4 weeks
So metrics are more restricted to customer acceptance at testing stages and cost and timeliness of development
The pandemic has accelerated the work at home trend and the acceptance of virtual teams
