If you want a full immersion experience in Agile, make sure to check out our pre-conference workshop ‘Planning and Initiating an Agile Project’ with Steve Rogalsky!
Planning and initiating any project can be a challenging task. When starting an agile project the focus, activities, and output changes significantly from traditional projects. It can be challenging to understand what practices should be used and what deliverables should be produced to allow the project to start quickly and on a firm foundation. This workshop will help you understand who should be involved and the differences between traditional and agile project planning and initiation. Working in teams, you will receive hands-on practice in planning and initiating an agile project using techniques such as:
- Agile Visioning (Starting with Why)
- Agile Chartering
- Planning, organizing and prioritizing through User Story Mapping
- Personas and User Scenarios
- Techniques for generating user stories
- How to write good user stories
- Agile estimating techniques
- Prioritizing user stories
- Light weight risk assessments
This hands-on workshop is recommended for all roles and team members.
Workshops can be registered individually or bundled with a conference registration for 50% off! For pricing information and how to register, visit
