This open one-day intense hands-on workshop is the first in a series of training courses in the Agile Academy, organized by PMI Chapter Poland. This is a full day workshop presenting a real-life introduction to agile, Scrum and Kanban. During this highly interactive and successful one-day workshop participants experience why waterfall won’t work and what it means to be in an agile project, independent of which agile approach to use. I will walk through a lot of topics during the day and will also do a number of eye-opening exercises with the participants.
Topics
- Why waterfall won’t work, and should have never existed
- How does agile really work?
- Agile principles and best practices
- Where does the backlog come from?
- Managing requirements in agile projects
- User stories and smart use cases
- Should you estimate in agile projects?
- Absolute versus relative estimation?
- Agile approaches compared
- Scrum, Smart, Kanban
- Assembling your own agile approach
Of course, all topics come with good and bad examples from my fifteen years of experience in coaching and running agile projects. I have presented this workshop over fifty times already, both in-house and through various independent organizers.
All participants receive a copy of my book This Is Agile.
