This document discusses agile estimating and planning. It explains that estimating is difficult but necessary to satisfy managers, customers, and other stakeholders. However, estimates are often too optimistic. The document recommends counting or measuring work instead of guessing whenever possible. It also advocates for ongoing planning and re-planning in agile instead of one-time upfront planning. Techniques like story points, user story splitting, planning poker, and historical velocity data can help create estimates and plans with good accuracy using minimal effort and information.
Using Analytics To Solve The Right ProblemsHiten Shah
The challenge for designers is how to measure their design work to ensure that it’s solving the right problems—before the designs are implemented. Analytics are a powerful tool. But if you don’t understand the “why” behind the data, it’s not going to do you any good. This presentation is a crash course in how to measure the success of your work. You’ll learn how to think like a scientist, using a hypothesis-driven approach to design, and creating successful tests to help you improve your work through focused iteration.

3 Things Rambo can teach you about IT in Startups - Startup Camp Berlin 2013Martin Müller
If you are a startup and want to launch a product or a service, you can not effort to let your IT focus on something else than product development.
The last couple of years I unfortunately experienced that IT in startups tend to shift the focus over time from product development to internal operations support. Not because the product is ready and nothing to improve anymore, rather because the need of other departments for technical support and help on their essential tasks and processes grown. And the "IT guys" need to help out there to get it running.
In this presentation I suggest to outsource every process functionality which is not affecting the core product of a startup to an SaaS service provider out there.
Use an expert service provider for sending mail campaigns. Use an drag and drop landingpage creation tool including A/B testing ability for your landingpages. Use a dashboard service for reports and live stats. Use a customer care ticketing and instant faq tool for taking care of customer questions.
My main point is: Don't do it internally and don't do it yourself. Pay overall 200 bucks a month and nobody gets hurt. So you can focus on your mission and not on stupid support tasks.

While Kanban is gaining more and more traction in the tech industry, we start to experience the same challenges as when the popularity of Agile started to rise. People get interested and ask "What is this Kanban thing I see popping up everywhere?". As soon as they learn the basics about it, the human brain does what it always does when processing information. It compares to what it already knows. This is where we lose our ability to learn something without prejudice. We come up with arguments why these new idea are not as good as the ones we are used to. In this presentation, I will cover 5 of the most common arguments against Kanban and explain why they are flawed, by exploring Kanban in depth. You will learn how to respond to these questions and get a more profound knowledge on the foundations of Kanban.

One of the most common struggles of Scrum teams is finishing a sprint 100%. In their retrospectives, teams work out improvement actions to address this issue. These actions are often targeting better planning, better estimating or better preparation of user stories. However, as time proceeds, the next sprints are not completed 100% neither. Even when the Scrum master encourages the team to commit to less story points. They always seems to deliver 80% to 90% of the sprint backlog. Not only is this very demotivating, it also compromises shipping the next increment. In this session I will explain with a case study, why this struggle is not related to poor planning, estimating or preparation. I will share how this specific team used the improvement kata and Theory of Constraints to optimize their flow of work and ended up finishing their sprints successfully.
General overview of project management, with extra attention to time estimation. Includes how to answer the 5 basic PM questions: Why are we doing this project?
What exactly are we doing?
How and when are we getting it done?
Who is working on it?
What if something goes wrong?
Permettere al cliente di apprezzare l'approccio agileSteve Maraspin

Content’s a funny beast: it's both part of our web projects, and outside of them. You need to define your strategy and work with real content during the design process, and also prepare people for all the implications of your decisions: rewriting, reorganizing, archiving, migrating, and a million other tasks that take time, skill, and planning—not to mention all the stuff people will post and change after launch.
But you’re a project manager, not an everything-all-the-time manager. How can you guide all that content work that exists beyond your project’s boundaries without losing sight of your scope? In this talk, you’ll learn how to create a parallel process for content—one where the content decisions made within the design process are vetted against real-world constraints, and where PMs can rally the right people at the right time to keep content on track.
Number Stories: Win Friends and Influence HiPPOs with an Effective Measuremen...Michael Powers
Data overload has come to content strategy. With so many things to measure and tools to measure it with, how do you find a way to use analytics without succumbing to analysis paralysis? And without spending all your time on analytics? This session will walk through the creation of a measurement strategy that supports your existing content strategy. Then we’ll look at the ways you can use those analytics to tell the kinds of stories that persuade your peers and superiors to make smarter content decisions.
In this session, you will:
Learn how to decide what to measure and why
Find out how to create an analytics routine that provides actionable insights without taking up all your time
Learn to present measurements and analytics in ways that influence and persuade others
Estimates are not promises
Your gut lies
Premature estimation is sabotage
Big teams are slower than small ones
Beware unwarranted precision
Count all the things!
When in a pinch, use a proxy
You can’t negotiate math
Even when the scope, the budget and the schedule of a project is fixed, there are plenty of dimensions on which you have freedom.
This presentation relates the story of a project that explored some of those other dimensions by adopting various agile aproaches.

5. The 5 wives
1. WHY? Because my manager keeps
asking for them!
2. WHY? Because he needs to give estimates
to his boss
3. WHY? Because the management team needs
to update the release planning
4. WHY? Because our customers want to know
when they get their new features
5. WHY? Because they are relying on our solution

23. We ALL tend to be too OPTIMISTIC
Developers:
• 20% - 30% too optimistic²
Managers :
• We’ll be more productive
• Won’t make the same mistakes
• Catch up with extra effort
28. Planning by counting
1. Find something to count closely
related to size of the software
2. Find something that’s
available now
3. Must be statistically meaningful
4. Convert count to estimate
36. • Ongoing
• Re-planning
• Changes weighed
We need to plan FAST,
with good ACCURACY
and LITTLE DETAILED information
37. HOW can we plan
‘Agile’?
• Plan and re-plan
• The right thing at the right time
• With minimal effort
• With good accuracy
• And little detailed information
• Creating a shared framework of understanding

Time
52. Agile release planning
But answer this question first:
“What is most imporant?
• Delivering the FULL SCOPE
OR
• Delivering a useful product at a FIXED DATE
54. A plan loses its value right after it
is created
Because it’s part of history and did
not know about the present!²
The only way
it makes sense to use a plan,
is when you continuously re-plan!
