Explanation

The Sprint Goal is crafted collaboratively by the entire Scrum Team during Sprint Planning. The Product Owner proposes an objective based on the Product Backlog, and the Development Team negotiates what can be achieved. The resulting Sprint Goal is a shared commitment by the whole Scrum Team - not solely the Product Owner's directive or the Development Team's own plan. Collaboration between all three roles is essential.
