Agile delivery: what could wait so the important work can finish?

In Tuesday’s post, I explored why agility needs boundaries: clarity about what we protect and what we can change.

Now consider what happens when those boundaries meet a difficult deadline.

There is more work left than the team can realistically finish. What changes next?

Make scope the conversation

DSDM offers a deliberate approach: protect time, cost and the agreed quality standard, then vary the features delivered.

Try bringing that thinking into your next planning conversation.
