DESCRIPTION
Why do we estimate—anything? There are two reasons : 1) to align expectations with our stakeholders, and 2) to make better decisions today that optimize desirable, future outcomes. What’s a forecast? A forecast is a type of estimate that models uncertainty by showing different possibilities of what might happen in the future, along with their associated probabilities of occurrence. What’s an agile burn-up chart? A burn-up chart is a visual forecast used with agile development efforts. The problem with most burn-up charts is they show only one possible outcome : the most likely outcome. But there are are other possible outcomes, too! In this webinar, learn how to set stakeholder expectations by creating a probabilistic burn-up chart showing three possible outcomes for your agile team’s future performance : optimistic, most likely, and conservative. Probabilistic burn-up charts are excellent at aligning stakeholder expectations and helping agile teams make better decisions to optimize desirable, future outcomes. To create a probabilistic burn-up chart, we will use Statistical PERT®, a flexible, freely-licensed, Excel® spreadsheet. After the webinar, you can immediately start forecasting your agile team’s future performance and setting stakeholder expectations using a probabilistic, agile burn-up chart!
