Course Overview
There’s a saying: “You can’t manage what you don’t measure.” How do you estimate Agile releases and manage risk? If you're implementing or considering Agile methods in your organization, how do you compare productivity and quality against waterfall projects? Join Michael Mah to understand both Agile and waterfall metrics, and how to communicate differences in the ways they behave to key decision makers.
Agenda
In this tutorial you'll learn how to translate a sketch of an Agile project into benchmark graphs to reveal patterns for productivity, velocity, time-to-market, and defects using your own data.
- Get an inside look at Agile measurement by seeing this in action from real case studies.
- Learn how to replicate these techniques to make comparisons on time, cost, and quality.
- Discover how to leverage these methods to understand your own history and reliably forecast future projects.
During this hands-on session, you'll use a laptop to benchmark productivity using innovative tools to capture Agile measures. You'll be paired two-by-two using metrics templates to make benchmarking easy. As an added benefit, you will also receive a free evaluation copy of QSM’s SLIM-DataManager (a $2,500 value) with access to special webinars designed to help you succeed.
