Description
Agile Product Requirements Readiness is a mindset and approach to implement lean-agile incremental requirements to achieve faster software delivery. Divided into four sections and 31 modules, this 2 hour and 5 min course is packed with ideas, concepts, practical methods, tools and templates to transform your requirements process. This is not about features and user stories but what happens BEFORE. By welcoming your existing requirements artifact types, this approach leaves your existing requirements engineering process alone but provides a path to lean-agile incremental requirements. Take the course and immediately apply these concepts so that you can get your software to market faster.
Designed for business owners, entrepreneurs, product managers and product owners, this course helps you build the right thing first not the wrong thing fast. The principles, practices and success patterns learned here will help you align and synchronize between business and software development.
This course will help you move away from waterfall requirements processes and reduce knowledge handoff delays between business and software development teams. Moving to an incremental requirements approach will increase coordination between business and software development.
This helps you write MUCH BETTER Features and User Stories that will be coded faster and with higher quality. By providing incremental requirements early and often, a better shared context and shared understanding is built between business and development teams.
