Explanation
The Product Owner is solely responsible for ordering (prioritizing) the Product Backlog to maximize the value delivered by the Development Team. Ordering reflects business value, risk, dependencies, and strategic goals. While the Product Owner may take input from stakeholders, the Development Team, and the Scrum Master, the final decision on ordering belongs exclusively to the Product Owner. Senior Executives, the Scrum Master, and the Development Team do not own this responsibility.
