Unclear requirements are always a problem.  Always hard in a way.

So, let’s discuss how we are doing “requirements” in an agile way.  What is working or not working for you?

***

Here are some ideas.  And we want everyone to share.

Ideas:

• can be done verbally
• can be done via pictures
• can be done as lists
• related to DOR
• PO has some responsibility
• Developers have responsibility (to insist they have enough)
• Jeff Sutherland suggests an enabling specification (see: [link to be added]
• do them as a flow.  8 stories are ready-ready just before the sprint starts
• some people use templates
• DOR might define types of info needed (sometimes).  Devs must decide per story
• Lean UX can be part of it
• Business side engaged (part-time, a bunch of people)
• Etc, etc.

Please come and share your ideas and questions.

Immediate Goals: Developers have less uncertainty and higher motivation.  Fewer examples of mis-communication as we do the demo in the Sprint Review.

Goal of session: You take away some ideas to experiment with to raise the productivity and effectiveness of your Team.  Customers become happier.

 

See you there!
