XS This is a nice touch This is a bit inconvenient Barely noticeable
S This is nice to have This is irritating Marginal gain
M This should be there This is really poor Modest gain
L This is really good This is really bad Significant gain
XL This is hugely better This is a deal breaker Huge gain
XXL This is revolutionary This is a total disaster World changer
Example courtesy of Matt Stratford, PM at Elsevier
Scoring for Effort?
Effort Technical Effort Design Effort Business Effort
XXS No sooner said than done Eyeball it Do it
XS Quick change Take a quick look Do it
S A day or two Have you thought about….. Do it
M Decent story Need some design spec Check with someone
L A bit of an epic That’ll need design review Talk to a few people
XL Big epic Needs an investigation Check with execs
XXL It’s a Death Star Massive piece of work Needs a full business case
Example courtesy of Matt Stratford, PM at Elsevier
