<p><span style="color:#000000"><span style="font-size:20px">Crucial Requirements:</span></span></p>
<ol>
<li style="text-align: left;"><span style="color:#000000"><span style="font-size:15px">Being managed by someone else is totally ingrained in our life and work experience. Parents, teachers, and bosses who teach us to self-manage instead of striving to fulfill their expectations are rare. Why should we expect that when we tell a Team that it is responsible for managing itself, it will know what we are talking about?</span></span><br />
</li>
<li style="text-align: left;"><span style="color:#000000"><span style="font-size:15px">How straightforward will it be to change the hearts and minds of the people working on projects? Some organizations by their very nature are conservative, while others are quite radical. Incorrectly identifying the prevailing attitudes towards agile will result in poor take-up or even rejection of any new practices.</span></span><br />
</li>
<li style="text-align: left;"><span style="color:#000000"><span style="font-size:15px">There is lots of discussion about the role of a project manager; whether a project manager is needed in the agile world or not. How much and which way a traditional project manager has to change his/her management style or way of working in order to be an agile project manager?</span></span><br />
</li>
<li style="text-align: left;"><span style="color:#000000"><span style="font-size:15px">Agile project management with Scrum derives from best business practices in companies like Fuji-Xerox, Honda, Canon, and Toyota. Toyota routinely achieves four times the productivity and 12 times the quality of competitors. Can Scrum do the same for globally distributed teams?</span></span><br />
</li>
<li style="text-align: left;"><span style="color:#000000"><span style="font-size:15px">first iteration. The “plan” for the team is then a list of prioritized features, and who is to perform the tasks of developing the features is decided on during the iteration. What is important in the kick-off meeting to enable feedback and learning?</span></span><br />
</li>
<li style="text-align: left;"><span style="color:#000000"><span style="font-size:15px">A lot of these decisions are based around selecting the correct level of governance and ceremony. At project initiation there should be questions such as ‘Do we run this as a full-on PRINCE2 project or do we use some of DSDM for this?'</span></span><br />
</li>
<li style="text-align: left;"><span style="color:#000000"><span style="font-size:15px">Scrums productivity stems from doing the right things first and doing those things very effectively. The product owner queues up the right work by prioritizing the product backlog. How does the team maximize its productivity, though?</span></span><br />
</li>
<li style="text-align: left;"><span style="color:#000000"><span style="font-size:15px">Partial solutions can only be used if the information support is being developed for a process that has not yet been computerised. Namely, if users already use an old IT solution – will they partly use the old one and partly the new one?</span></span><br />
</li>
<li style="text-align: left;"><span style="color:#000000"><span style="font-size:15px">What is the difference, if any, in customer satisfaction between the use and results of agile-driven software development methods and the use and results of plan-driven software development software development methods?</span></span><br />
</li>
<li style="text-align: left;"><span style="color:#000000"><span style="font-size:15px">The fundamentals of agile software development, agile project management, and evolutionary development have been proven and demonstrated to be highly successful. Are these now preferred in our organization?</span></span><br />
