Calendar of Events

Want to gain alignment between the business and an Agile team, create a Minimum Viable Product (MVP) or product with that shared understanding and an effective plan? We do this with an Inception (not the movie). Inceptions are based on Lean Startup and Design Thinking practices for agile, waterfall and hybrid teams. 

In this presentation we will discuss:

• The phases of Inception (Pre-planning, Business & Project Context, Product Solutioning, Technical Visioning, Estimation & Planning, and Showcase)
• Why do Inceptions?
• The outcomes
• How to schedule an in-depth week-long Inception workshop
• The right moment to do an inception
• Who should attend?

Have you joined our new PMINYC Agile Community Linked In Group? After the webinar is over, please share your thoughts, feedback or additional questions with Peter Graves in our new Linked In group to continue our discussion on Agile Inception.

Once you join, you can also network with others from our agile community!
