Webinar Series: The Gaps in Your Agile Methodology No One Talks About

Part 1: Introduction

For the last 20+ years we’ve all been diligently working to agile our way to product success. Indeed, developing iteratively and applying agile methodologies has helped our industry make huge strides. At times, however, It has also led us to focus on the wrong things…

In this webinar we’ll discuss how inherent gaps in common agile methodologies have led to poor product strategy, flawed definition, and ultimately, subpar execution.

We will highlight these gaps, hear real life stories of their impacts on organizations, and learn how to avoid falling into these traps when developing our products.

Illustrated via real-life examples, Anne Steiner demonstrates concrete steps for filling the gaps between idea and high quality stories. Not only will you have your stories but, more importantly, you’ll have insightful discovery conversations that lead to deeper and more meaningful product understanding!
