Oct 4 - Backlog Management Workshop with Matt Kinman

[Nicholas Cancelliere]

http://agileaustinbacklogworkshop.eventbrite.com/

Participants will learn how to create and manage backlogs which will include: identifying up to three backlogs types (Product/Project, Release, Sprint), defining the scope and goals of these backlogs and managing the content and life cycle of the backlogs.  Participants will also explore techniques on establishing a Product backlog from scratch for a brand new product and establishing a Product backlog for a product already in development or release.

Attendees will discuss basic elements of a backlog and state the goal of the backlog.  Learn how to define the basic elements of the backlog and how these elements are created, updated and tracked.  Learn how to keep track of and prioritize all work/features/requests for a product, provide visibility to the team and company, and use the backlog as a spring-board for release and sprint planning.

This engagement will be facilitated by Matt Kinman.  As with all AgileAustin Workshops attendance is free.  We ask that only people able to commit to the Saturday morning sign-up, as space is limited.  If you have any questions about the workshop or would like to facilitate a topic related to Agile please contact ncance...@gmail.com for more details.

(For those who signed up for the Sprint/Release Planning session - this is *not* the same workshop.  We are still looking to reschedule that one.)
