Study Notes

  • Many organizations are still measuring success based on a traditional, preeminent management mindset, which involves creating a plan at the beginning of a project and sticking to it, even though it was created when there was the most uncertainty.
  • Agile approaches to project management involve multiple plans and are not solely reliant on one plan. There are three levels of hierarchy in agile artifacts: output, outcome, and impact.
  • Output refers to the documentation, designs, processes, frameworks, stories, scheduling, and planning involved in a project. Customers do not pay for this output.
  • Outcome refers to the features or hypotheses that are delivered to customers. Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) are used to measure the success of these features, such as user satisfaction, cycle time, user behavior, and customer retention.
  • Impact refers to the larger effects of the features on the world, expressed through epics. This level of measurement may take months or years to evaluate and includes factors like revenue, profit, brand awareness, and how the world is changed by the organization.
