Take control, guide the Product to success 

Spend no more than 4hr/week working with your Backlog

The Product Backlog is the home of the Product, and when you get that messy it will simply get in the way of getting the job done, that is creating value. All your energy should not be in the Product Backlog. This solution will empower you to take action to keep your Backlog lean so you can focus your time on creating value.

The cost of an overcrowded Backlog will slow you down and reduce the value of your product. This session will help speed up development and increase quality. David calls it: "Adding by Subtracting"
