One of the most challenging and trouble-prone aspects of Agile product development is discovering the right product requirements to deliver at the right time for the right customer.
Many teams rely on user stories to discover and define Agile product requirements. In reality, user stories often lead to a confusing array of struggles and puzzles, such as bloated backlogs, ineffective or inconsistent planning, and erratic sprint flow. This thrashing is not how user stories are intended to work
EBG’s Ellen Gottesdiener in this fast-paced introduction of a common sense, tested approach to user stories. With a laser-like focus on delivering value, you follow a story as it’s sliced across the 7 Product Dimensions. You learn how the Structured Conversation framework enables you to quickly explore, evaluate, and confirm stories. See how making your user stories “ready” is the key for incremental delivery of your “Done” product.
