A project implementing a new process will be rolled out in stages. A demonstration is planned for pilot business units. A manager from a unit scheduled later asks to attend the sprint review. What should the project manager do?

Inviting the manager to the scheduled sprint review is the best approach. Sprint reviews are designed to gather feedback from stakeholders and demonstrate progress, making them an ideal forum for this manager to see the new process and provide early input. This promotes transparency and allows for early identification of potential issues or concerns from future users. Referring the request to the project sponsor or asking for product owner approval adds unnecessary bureaucracy and delays. Organizing a separate demonstration is inefficient and duplicates effort, as the information can be shared during the existing sprint review.
