Agile Inception

Agile Project Kick-off

Project initiation / chartering has been a known gap when it comes to Agile projects. So, does that mean we just start our iteration / sprint directly? Not really! Inception, a lightweight Agile technique helps fill this gap and guides us through a collection of tough questions and exercises that we ask right at the beginning when we are starting the project and not much later.

Objectives

  • Equip you and your teams with a lightweight Agile technique for kick-starting your project with all stakeholders and teams
  • Kill the assumption of consensus among different stakeholders
  • Equip all stakeholders with information to make Go/No-Go decisions and allow project teams to make intelligent decisions while executing
