Short Shorts. The Key to Product Owner Success.

An effective and capable Product Owner is key for any successful Scrum project.

So what do we look for in a great Product Owner?
- Product expertise
- Vision
- Decisiveness
- Experience
- Flexibility
- Works well with developers
- Focused
- Responsive
- Practical
- Great collaborator
- Great communicator

I see all of these things as important in making up a Product Owner that can drive a project towards the realisation of  value. There is however one thing that's arguably more important than any of the above and that's a pair of shorts as modelled below by @brightsweb.

Maybe it has something to do with the re-routing of the blood supply to the brain. I'm not sure, I'll leave that to the scientists out there. All I know is: Short shorts. The're the key to success.
