YDS: How Does a Scrum Team Handle Unplanned Work?
Todd and Ryan address a question about handling unplanned work that is not measured in Sprint planning and affects a team's predictability in meeting Sprint goals. They recommend holding back capacity back in Sprint planning to account for the unplanned work and plan realistically rather than at 100% capacity. They suggest cutting capacity in half if about half of the work in a Sprint is unplanned. They also caution against equating predictability with maintaining the same velocity or throughput and recommend measuring unplanned work transparently and gathering data on it. ⏩ Join Ryan and Todd for a Scrum.org course: https://buytickets.at/agileforhumansllc Todd and Ryan also co-authored a book - Fixing Your Scrum: Practical Solutions to Common Scrum Problems. 👉 Buy Fixing Your Scrum at Amazon: https://amzn.to/3BMvkcX ✅Subscribe to our Channel to learn more about Agile, Scrum, and Kanban: https://www.youtube.com/agileforhumans?sub_confirmation=1 For more information about Agile for Humans, visit: Community: https://community.agileforhumans.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/agileforhumans Twitter: https://twitter.com/agileforhumans LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/agile-for-humans-llc See omny.fm/listener for privacy information.
