The issue is the lead is just fast tracking the work and not addressing the feed back from the rest of the team. For all we know, he is over looking gaps, scheduling too much work, etc. involve the team and use tools better processes, and root cause the issues before they become issues.

D The project leader should have focused on addressing the root cause of the task delays rather than rushing to fast-track features. They could have facilitated discussions with the team to identify and resolve any blockers or misunderstandings. Additionally, they should have encouraged collaboration between the team and the product owner to ensure clear understanding of priorities and expectations, and to adjust the sprint scope accordingly to maintain quality.
