Agile Forum (Virtual) - 200421

Webinar

Ask an Agilist: “When will you be done?” How to answer this question to leaders and others!

presented by Ryland Leyton, Sr. Agile Business Analyst  

The Agile Forum meetings offer an opportunity for professional networking and knowledge sharing with other agile practitioners as well as provide a learning environment for professionals interested in learning about agile techniques. Everyone is welcome to participate.      

Due to coronavirus concerns, we will be hosting this event through webinar. Because of this change, member rate is now $8 and non-member rate is $10.      

PresentationLeyton-Ryland

Answering “when will you be done?” to people outside the team – like the C-suite, Directors, and Managers – is often a challenge for teams focused on building software. In Agile situations it can be even more complicated!

Speaking to this group in a way comprehensible for an elevator or a hallway is a core competency for any project manager who wants to retain freedom and funding!

This session takes a walk through explaining the concept of velocity, applies the Agile concept of the “cone of uncertainty”, reviews the value of burn-up and burn-down charts, and then shows you how to provide a clear, simple understandable, and truthful answer about when you’ll be done.
