Initiating an Agile Project For Developers

A 59 Seconds Agile Article

This article provides a discussion on ‘Initiating an Agile Project’ and looks to discuss what Agile is and the processes involved when starting an Agile project.

Initiating an Agile Project

Let’s wrap up with a summary of what we’ve gone over so far. The amount of unnecessary documentation created in traditional project management builds an obstacle into the product development process. By removing this obstacle by following the agile values and principles, projects are able to deliver value to customers as soon as possible.

Just-in-time documentation ensures stakeholder involvement from the conception of the project, and helps guide the relationship between the scrum team and the stakeholders throughout the entire development process. Only creating the documentation as it is needed clears up the requirements for the scrum team, making sure that everyone is aligned on the project vision. It also reduces the amount of wasted effort and cost in the event that the project has to pivot or is cancelled.

Reduce upfront documentation and planning, establish the team and the communications required with the stakeholders, start developing the product sooner, and deliver the highest value continuously. Development focused on creating documentation only when it is needed allows the maximum amount of value to be produced.

By adopting the agile values and principles, you can reduce the upfront documentation and rigid guidelines that hinder your team’s ability to be flexible and work closely with the stakeholders to create the most valuable product possible.

User Stories Applied

A 59 Seconds Agile Book Review

User Stories Applied by Mike Cohn is one of our favourite books on Agile User Stories. The book starts with an overview into user stories, and details what a user story is and the different aspects of them.
