Addressing Your Agile/Scrum Challenges

Fixing What is Broken & Maximizing What You Have Educational Workshop  (8 PDUs) 

Presented by Neil Potter

Do you have any of these symptoms:

  • Poorly defined backlog of requirements — little clarity about what the need is, what to build or test.
  • Over commitment — each sprint is bursting at the seams with incomplete work flowing from one sprint to the next with no predictable release date.
  • Chronic technical, resource and customer surprises that consume the team.Customer and management 
  • Delivery expectations not accurately set or met.
  • Chaos (a smokescreen) is used to avoid accountability.
  • Agile feels more like a sweat shop than the new cool way of developing systems.
