What is the purpose of the Sprint Planning meeting?

Purpose:

Sprint Planning sets the direction for the upcoming Sprint. The team collaboratively decides

what can be delivered and how the work will be accomplished.

Key outcomes:

• A clear Sprint Goal.
• A selected set of Product Backlog Items (PBIs) for the Sprint.
• A high-level plan for delivering those items.

Real-World Example:

In a team building a customer support chatbot, the Product Owner presents the most

valuable backlog items. The team discusses capacity and agrees to focus on implementing

“Chatbot FAQ logic” and “User intent recognition.” These become the Sprint backlog.
