Lean Forecasting: When Will it be Done?

"When will the project be done?

"When can we expect an MVP?"

"When will we have the product?"

One of the most common questions that stakeholders ask of product owners is the question about the completion date. To this end, scrum teams work to issue estimations and guess completion dates based on previous work and an understanding of the team's capacity. However, reality shows that these dates will ultimately be cancelled or adjusted. 

In this webinar, join Certified Scrum Trainer®, Urs Reupke, as he presents the most common reasons for these misjudgments and how they can be avoided. He will present lean (probabilistic) forecasting as an alternative to estimates.

Presenter(s)

I am a Scrum Trainer, Coach and Consultant based in Hamburg, Germany. I studied Computer Science at the University of Karlsruhe and experienced agile practices as a software developer for some years. During that time, I discovered that even perfect code is worthless if the social structures and the development process don't hold up - only if all three parts work as one, success will ensue. 2013 I moved back to northern Germany, changed jobs and became an Agile Coach and Consultant at it-agile GmbH. I have been a Certified Scrum Trainer since 2018. In my spare time, I practice Taiji and software development, enjoy the finer points of the German language and have fun playing games of all kinds. I was born in 1980 in Kiel, Germany.
