Waterfall vs agile

1. Waterfall vs Agile
Workshop
Don’t blame the waterfall!
Don’t say that agile & scrum will
rescue the world!
Sometimes you have to work with a
waterfall, sometimes with agile.
Focus on differences and sharing
knowledge, let people judge by
themselves.

Place to put postit Place to put postits
Agile
Show topic and ask participants to use
postits and put on table/wall/flipchart.
Ask for anything related to topics.
It will allow you to know a group level.

While group knows what is waterfall
and agile - go to next topic - compare
waterfall and iterative way of work.
Say about 4 KPI and ask group to
create charts for it.
Let’s discuss.

6. Visibility Change
RiskValue
Here there is no one solution - it
depends on the group. If you have a
large group you can split info
subgroups by 3 people each.
Let them think!
Don’t force your mindset!
Don't worry result is almost the same
