Questions Answered in this course:

• Where does the Business Analyst fit into Agile?
• I’ve heard that there at no Business Analysts or Project managers in an Agile Team – what’s going to happen to us?
• Agile talks a lot about delivering value, but what is value and to whom?
• Why does value matter so much?
• Can’t we just deliver the project and move on?
• My Project Sponsor wants On Time, On Budget, how does that relate to Agile?
• Value means different things to different people, so how can we find value in so many different items of priority?
• What about when we have numerous, often equally powerful stakeholders all insisting that their business value outranks all others?
• What about Bugs and Spikes – what are they and do they have value?

Unless you are equipped with the tools and mindset, you are punching in the dark and will never realize true potential for your Agile team.
