Holding regular Cross-Team Refinement events in a consistent location within a Sprint establishes clear expectations for attendees regarding when and where they need to participate. This regularity promotes a structured and predictable environment, making it easier for Scrum Teams to prepare and engage effectively.
Consistency in location and scheduling also supports the successful execution of Cross-Team Refinement. When Product Backlog items are sufficiently independent, they can be selected and worked on without excessive overlap and dependencies between Scrum Teams in a Nexus. This practice is vital for ensuring that a Nexus operates efficiently and can deliver Value incrementally through well-coordinated and refined efforts.
