How to manage an agile project with a non agile customerEyal Negev
So you need to develop a new product for a new customer.
Nice!
The uncertainties and risks are high since it is based on new advanced technologies which R&D are not yet familiar with.
Your team does not have experience delivering such large scale products.
You don’t know in advance what is the right way to build the most valuable product, per customer needs.
But don’t worry, you are running an agile project.
Superb!
One thing though –
Your customer doesn’t work in agile and she expects:
The scope of the product and its features to be defined in advance.
The timeline to be communicated in advance, including what features will be delivered and when.
Basically she wants a typical yearly waterfall detail plan.
What?!
Oh no!
What should I do?
Design Sprints: Creating a Space for Collaboration and InnovationMore Space For Light

Presentation to Lonetree PMI Roundtable on August 27, 2008.
Abstract:
According to the Wall Street Journal agile development has "crossed the chasm." Why then are there still strong pockets of intense resistance to agile? This presentation takes a look at some of the most common misconceptions about agile development. It exposes the truth behind the myths and backs up many of the points with actual industry data. In the process, a basic business case for agility is created. The goal of this session is for all participants to leave with the knowledge necessary to answer the question "Why Agile?" In addition, participants will gain a deeper understanding of the realities of agile development and how it can help organizations.
Measuring the Roi of Planning Software Boston June 2012Ben Lamorte
It was a small group of about 15 FP&A pros gathering around the conference room at the Boston Hilton. We analyzed conditions that suggest it is better to stick with spreadsheets for budgeting and planning. Then we looked at cases where it is a "gray area" as well as "no brainer" cases for replacing spreadsheets based on estimating the ROI of implementing a dedicated planning application.

“For every complex problem there is an answer that is short, simple, and wrong!”
To estimate the complexity and the size of the project we’re about to develop is definitely a complex problem. It doesn't matter if it is a simple app for buying cat food or a very elaborated banking system. Usually, we’re using different estimation approaches to deal with this problem, but it’s pretty easy to fall into various traps. The results of your fall-downs may be really painful, such as an unhappy client or a frustrated team.
In this presentation we’re speaking about different situations and mistakes we’ve made (or have observed in other teams) and we’ll try to give some tips how to avoid them.
