A company is transitioning from a predictive to an agile approach. During the last two sprint reviews, the product owner complained about the development team, indicating that the increments do not meet the acceptance criteria defined in the user stories. The development team complained about the product owner, who is defining sprint backlog items, because the backlog items cannot be delivered during the 2-week sprints agreed to at the beginning of the project.
How should the project manager resolve this situation in their new role as servant leader?
