•  Update delivery dates for defined releases based on progress at the end of each Sprint.
•  Build and maintain a relationship with stakeholders and customers, as necessary.
•  Clearly communicate development goals, status, and business objectives between the Scrum Team and Stakeholders to ensure there is alignment on key business objectives.
