Recently the team's progress slowed because of changes to the other components that they integrate. The program manager is extremely upset when they find out that the team will need two more Sprints.

Explanation:

As a Scrum Master, you could help the Product Owner by suggesting working with the program manager and the project managers of the other components on the ordering and the value of your open Product Backlog items to redefine the possible delivery date. This would allow you to collaborate with the stakeholders and align on the expectations and priorities of the product. You could also inspect and adapt your integration process and communication channels with the other teams to minimize the impact of changes and dependencies.
