Explanation

Option A (re-assess the product goal, place it on the product backlog, and explain it to the team) directly addresses the product owner's core responsibility: defining and communicating the product vision. Re-assessing the product goal based on stakeholder feedback and then explicitly explaining it to the team ensures alignment on direction. Option C (create sprint goals and communicate them at sprint planning) operationalizes the product vision sprint by sprint, giving the team concrete, actionable objectives that connect daily work to the broader product goal. Together, these two actions close the loop between strategic vision and execution. Option B is incorrect because daily scrums are solely for the development team-inviting stakeholders violates Scrum principles. Option D is incomplete. Option E is incorrect because sprint retrospectives are internal Scrum team events; inviting external stakeholders disrupts the psychological safety needed for honest retrospection.
