Becoming Agile - Better Requirements and Improved Collaboration with User Stories
Presented by: Kevin Chase, Joann Pagett
Today’s fast pace of change, driven by new innovation, customer convenience demands, and new technologies require business analysis practitioners to move from traditional methods of gathering requirements. Consequently, business analyst’s practices are evolving from the use of large up front BRDs to more value focused methods that allow for accelerated development and rapid learning. Join us for this event to learn about how user stories are used to drive a more adaptive and collaborative approach to requirements development. Speakers at this event will share the why, what, who, and how of user stories, as well as lessons learned along the way. If you are looking for ways to help your teams become more agile - this session will help you get started.
What Attendees Will Learn:
- Achieving Agility in any Methodology
- Why User Stories
- Structured Framework for User Stories
- Importance of Acceptance Criteria
