Value proposition with Agile

Avoid value atrophy with short releases

How does Value survive over Time?

I have found it difficult to describe the Agile pay off, or value proposition when introducing Agile.  Perhaps your audience is aware of agile, maybe even attempting a few agile projects.  But how do you describe the value proposition?  Is it faster time to market? …True but not the entire scope initially.  Is it higher quality? …quite possible.  Is it more transparency? …sure but we have lots of meetings already.  Is it Customer Delight? … Perhaps, but how do you measure that?

Google Timer

Need a countdown timer?

Google has a simple solution.  Just jump on over to Google and in the search box try:

“set timer 1 minute”

And there you go, a handy-dandy countdown timer.  An actual timer that you can click ‘Start’ and it begins counting down. You can stop and reset it, as well as change the countdown duration. There’s a beeping sound to signal time’s up.

Bonus

You can hit the  icon and go full screen with the countdown.  Super easy.  Great for training sessions, Retrospectives, Daily Stand-ups.
