Unfortunately, there’s a lot of silence about what happens before iteration 1. But isn’t everything supposed to happen after the first iteration? Doesn’t the Product Backlog just evolve on its own after starting the project?

Yes, we could just get started with a number of user stories. And we would make some progress and get some things done. But is that really effective? Are we reaching the full potential of what could be created?

There are some key elements you should have in place before the first iteration. Let’s state (or re-state) the overall vision and purpose of the product. We need to truly understand the people who are going to use it, for now, and for the future. And let’s analyze what can affect our outcome. These critical factors will inform the initial product backlog creation.

Having these important things will ensure a better start for your Agile project.

What You Will Learn

After this one-hour session, learners will be able to:

• Identify the key factors that contribute to a successful Agile project start
• Focus on personas and journey maps and a business canvas
• Recognize the attribute of an initial product backlog

There’s a problem with that: many of the most important measures of success aren’t directly measurable at all. They may be qualitative. They are very often subjective. They are almost always falling within the domain of being intangible.

That’s not a bad thing, it is simply a statement of reality. It’s also not to say that they can’t be evaluated.

Doing so well, however, requires very different strategies and approaches than the more direct means of measurement we are told we should employ.

In this presentation Mark Mullaly (LinkedIn profile) author of Researching the Value of Project Management explores what is involved in measuring intangibles successfully.

It identifies pitfalls and cautions, provides guidance on what works, and outlines how to successfully define, evaluate and communicate the intangibles that most matter.

If you are challenged in how to measure your most important success outcomes, this is a webinar you will want to watch.
