Agile Estimating, Planning and Tracking: Part II
This session continues the discussion from Part I on Agile Estimating, Planning and Tracking focusing on the sprint (or iteration) level rather than the release level. The sprint cycle is the heartbeat of an agile process. Running smoothly and efficiently it drives incredibly productive teams and high-quality solutions. Yet, so often it feels unhealthy and arrhythmic.
This session will provide the characteristics of a heathly sprint heartbeat and demonstrate the key components required to keep it running that way.
This session will discuss many components of a sprint including the sprint planning process, task estimation, task tracking and dependency, daily stand up meetings, demonstration reviews and retrospectives.
About Pete Behrens
Pete Behrens didn't set out to become a leadership expert. His professional journey began as an engineer, solving technical problems, but life had other plans. Over three decades, Pete has evolved from individual contributor to technical leader to business executive and organizational coach, learning that the most complex challenges aren't technical; they're human.
As Founder and CEO of Agile Leadership Journey, Pete has dedicated his career to helping leaders navigate uncertainty with courage and authenticity. He believes that leadership isn't about having all the answers; it's about having the humility to ask better questions and the courage to step forward when the path isn't clear.
Pete’s debut book, “Into the Fog: Leadership Stories from the Edge of Uncertainty,” captures decades of leadership wisdom through compelling real-world stories. The book reveals how authentic leadership emerges not in moments of clarity, but in the uncertainty of everyday challenges–what Pete calls “the Fog.”
An influential speaker, Pete has shared his insights at various global conferences and hosts the Relearning Leadership™ podcast, where he engages with industry experts and leaders to explore the evolving landscape of leadership and organizational development.
