Title: Everyone Sucks at Estimating! Making Progress Through Imperfection

Speaker(s): Brian Link

Time: 1:30 PM

Room: Marquis - ZenHub

Abstract:

Being "usefully wrong and directionally correct" is an important part of how we operate in agile. This shows up in estimating at a user story level with story points. And it shows up in how we write and deliver against Objectives and Key Results. In fact, this ideas show up everywhere in the Agile Mindset. I will explain to the audience how being approximate, maybe even sloppy on purpose, shows up in many places while being agile from relative estimation to aligning with strategy.
