Explanation
Iteration Goals serve as a shared commitment that unifies all team members around what they intend to accomplish during the Iteration, creating alignment on priorities and providing a common purpose - making B correct. Option A is wrong because Iteration Goals focus on what the team delivers, not on monitoring whether individuals are working at maximum capacity, which would be a productivity/utilization concern. Option C is incorrect because scope change tracking is handled through tools like the team backlog and velocity metrics, not Iteration Goals. Option D is close but misleading - while business value is a consideration when selecting work, Iteration Goals themselves are about alignment and commitment, not a measurement instrument for business value delivered.
Memory tip: Think of Iteration Goals as the team's "shared game plan" for the sprint - they answer "what are we all rallying around?", not "how hard are we working?" or "what did we earn?"
