What Is Agile?
                        • Individuals and Interactions over processes
                          and tools
                        • Working Software over comprehensive
                          documentation
                        • Customer Collaboration over contract
                          negotiation
                        • Responding to change over following a plan

Understanding your users
                                        pyscho-socio-logical
                                        makeup?

                                        And maybe manipulating
                                        them into doing what
                                        you want?

What is it the business is really trying to
          accomplish?

          What problem are we trying to solve?

          How will this project help us meet our
          corporate objectives?

          How can I help align this project more
          effectively with bringing value to both the
          end users and the business?
