    Abstract: If the goal of an Agile project is to deliver the highest business value solution possible, why is the business user the least supported member of the Agile team? It's good to be an Agile developer. The Agile community provides Agile developers with countless supporting resources including books, websites, forums, and conferences where Agile development issues can be raised, discussed, and jointly addressed by the group. The interesting thing is that, where Agile approaches go to great lengths to provide developers with the foundation they need to deliver high-value software solutions, there is relatively little equivalent support provided for the business users. In most Agile methods, the business user is solely responsible for the identification, requirements gathering, clarification, and assignment of priorities for their requested system capabilities. Agile development teams rely on business users having sufficient knowledge, vision, objectivity, and time to ensure that these capabilities provide the best possible solution. The Power of the Agile Business Analyst: 30 surprising ways a business analyst can add value to your Agile development team challenges whether Agile projects are truly positioned to deliver the highest-value business solutions without offering business users the equivalent level of support, validation, and collaboration that is provided for the Agile development team. To address this challenge, The Power of the Agile Business Analyst proposes including an Agile business analyst on the development team to provide business users with the support they need, as well as a valuable resource to assist the Agile developers in their analysis, design, testing, and implementation work throughout the project. 30 ways an Agile Business Analyst can help your team Drawing on more than 20 years' experience as a senior business analyst and international solutions consultant, Jamie Lynn Cooke details 30 achievable ways in which Agile business analysts can increase the relevance, quality, and overall business value of your Agile projects. Read this book and learn how to: Maximize the business value of your Agile solutions. Leverage the skills, experience, and opportunities an Agile business analyst can bring to your project. Find the most qualified Agile business analyst to complement your team. Identify how an Agile business analyst can help you address the most critical challenges on your Agile project. Use the strengths of an Agile bu...

    Abstract: In today's challenging economic climate, organizations faced with limited budgets and frozen staffing levels need proven, common-sense approaches to maximize their productivity. Agile approaches are business practices with a proven track record for helping organizations achieve greater efficiency, higher-quality outputs and increased customer satisfaction. They enable organizations to avoid the trappings of extensive up-front planning and up-front budget commitments by encouraging staff to regularly produce high-value business outputs; and by basing ongoing financial and resource commitments on the delivered outcomes. This focus on responsive planning based on tangible outputs is why Agile approaches have been successfully used in selected industries for over two decades. Agile Productivity Unleashed: Proven approaches for achieving real productivity gains in any organization introduces every industry sector to the Agile approaches that have dramatically improved the IT, product development and manufacturing sectors over the past two decades. The book clearly explains how the key principles of Agile approaches can be used to significantly increase productivity, quality and customer satisfaction in every business activity at your organization. Written in non-technical language specifically for business professionals, this book is an essential tool for anyone whose job it is to deliver high-quality results on time and on budget. Benefits of introducing Agile... Meet deadlines. Agile is designed to avoid the business risks involved in 'all-at-once' delivery, where a glitch during one stage of a project can throw the entire effort out of kilter, and result in serious delays in completion. This book shows how your organization can accommodate inevitable internal and external changes through responsive planning. By using Agile approaches, staff members no longer have to wait several weeks or months for an updated plan to be agreed, but can quickly adjust their work in line with new business requirements and priorities. In this way, Agile will help you to avoid project overrun and deliver on your commitments. Minimize waste. Agile approaches continually focus staff on the value stream, i.e. those activities that directly result in the highest business value generation for the organization. This book shows you how to use business process optimization, fixed deadlines and imminent timeframes to insure that delivery teams do not fall into the common tra...

    Abstract: A summary of the challenges facing today's IT project manager Discussions on project management forums highlight many of the challenges facing a project manager during the course of a project. Unclear requirements, scope creep and undefined roles are well-trodden issues that can derail a project. Other challenges are less obvious, often more subtle, but equally destructive. Facing up to the challenges This book offers a focused and concise summary of 50 challenges facing today's IT project manager. The authors draw on years of practical experience (rather than classroom theory) to outline these challenges and offer useful tips and advice on how to deal with them. Challenge and response Readers of this book will be better equipped to respond to key project management challenges, including Building the team - getting the right resources, matching skills/knowledge, defining roles and responsibilities. Project scope - clarifying assumptions, avoiding ambiguity, getting the time/cost estimates right. Politics - communicating with management and stakeholders, dealing with conflict, handling interference and micro-managing. Risk awareness - identifying inside/outside influences, recognising inbound and outbound dependencies. Time management - using the right planning tools, balancing work versus meetings. Failure - handling the blame game, protecting the team, rescuing the project. This book condenses into a handy summary much of the information and advice that can be found in project management related books and discussion forums. It is an ideal reference for anyone involved in IT project management, from professional service organisations (PSO) and project management offices (PMO), through to active project managers and studying graduates. Buy this book and deliver your next project on time, on budget and to specification!

    Abstract: Deliver exceptional results from your IT department using Agile approaches. This book will show you how. The bottom line: Everything you want to know about Agile comprehensively addresses the issues that IT departments face when they try to implement Agile approaches within the constraints of their traditional organizations, including existing project frameworks, budgeting structures, contracts and corporate reporting. It is an essential resource for IT departments that want to deliver successful Agile results, even in the most challenging environments. Making Agile work in your organization: The author, Jamie Lynn Cooke, explains the motivation for writing this book, 'When I go to Agile industry events, I find that attendees tend to fall into two camps: The people who are actively using Agile approaches and who want to make them even more effective; and the people who are frustrated because there are too many barriers in their organization for Agile to be adopted. Everything you want to know about Agile was written for the frustrated people. (Well, really, it was written for their managers.) It is a step-by-step guide for decision-makers to address and overcome the hurdles in Agile adoption within their organizations.' The book is written specifically to address the challenges of implementing Agile within the unique structures, constraints and culture of your organization. It describes Agile methodologies in clear business language specifically written for business professionals, providing you with the information that you need to: assess whether Agile is right for your department select the Agile methodologies and practices that are best suited to your work successfully implement these approaches in your department, and monitor and measure the outcomes. Most importantly, this book gives you a range of strategies for aligning Agile work within the reporting, budgeting, staffing and governance constraints of your organization, which is arguably the biggest challenge. What others are saying about this book: "... a superb resource that will allow information and knowledge professionals to succeed during the toughest of times ..." "... it does a great job of including real world insights, experiences and lessons learned while provided a professional (but still easy to read) insight into the world of Agile ... I found this book excellent and would not hesitate in recommending this ..." Jared Carstensen - Deloitte & Touche Written for IT decisio...
