Prerequisites for Accurate Forecasts

One of the benefits we can get out of Agile and Lean processes is the ability to forecast work based on a team’s metrics. But if you’ve just started tracking your cycle time and running Monte Carlo simulations, and your results are all over the map, this podcast is for you. We’re sharing with you what things need to be in place so that when you do run forecasts or look at your cycle time scatterplots, you’ll see results that are meaningful, useful, and actionable.

Om Podcasten

There is a lot of material on how a team should operate in an agile manner. There is also a lot of material for leadership as to the benefits of agility, the mindset, etc. But there is not a lot of material directed towards those folks who sit in between. Agile Bites breaks down key Lean and Agile concepts and practices for the people who are often tasked with supporting these things. People who may have to be redefining their roles in a world of incremental delivery. Or maybe they’ve been put in the middle of an “agile transformation” and things are not going as well as promised.
