PM’s role in estimation is facilitation of the refinement and estimation session. Also, PM has a important role for deriving the audience of the meeting. Attendees could be more than scrum team. In summary, it could be anyone who can help to estimate including other team members on whom the project might have a dependency. Besides, PM is supposed to let team consider dependencies while estimating and derive a project schedule and costing plan out of the estimation exercise. PM is also required to document assumptions and decisions if any coming out of estimation activity.

I really appreciate this platform. I have an interview tomorrow and this was so helpful. I am going to watch it again. Thank you, Saket!

Hi Saket, for a question related to how to monitor the health of the project. The scrum master can use various metrics to observe the health of the ongoing project. For example, Defect density, defect leakages, code review effectiveness, schedule variance, cost variance, task completion ratios. Monitoring these parameters helps us to give enlarge view of any problems occurring and effective RCA with team will help to resolve these issues. In addition, you can keep initial benchmark values for metrics and gradually tighten these parameters with time.

Good to hear it. I was quite on target. I gave 2 hours interview to a typical desi, it started from Technology QnA (all my mentioned technical skill sets - he was googling them) and then went into Project mgmt. Majority of what you guys discussed is what I explained. The Feedback he gave me is, you are too technical and give too detailed explanation. Based this session I think, either the guy was clueless to fit me or he had someone else to be onboarded. Lesson learnt: Some people take interview for time pass or to improve their won knowledge. Appreciate your feedback.

Hi Manish, I feel your frustration as I've been in the same boat and so have many of my friends. Typical desis will be very pleasing and submissive to goras but when it comes to interviewing another desi, they want to come on top, trying to showcase they know more and have a condescending attitude.

Very helpful. One the Capacity Planning part, where it was told to add more people who were just released from other sprint, i found we could have brought in the cost associated with them and without the stakeholders approval it is not possible. In fact, new members might be distorting the team dynamics.

Saket I believe goal of estimation is to understand complexity of the story. Priority is separate and is communicated by product or business team. Most complex stories may not be of highest priority and vice versa.

@izenbridge

Yes, usually the Value , Size , Risk , Impact and Dependency drives priority, not only the size of the story

Thanks Sanket for you videos. I got question from one the interview like "Who is your priority - Client or Process? " My answer is process. if we follow the process then client will satisfy the deliverables. Is my answer is correct?

@izenbridge

3 жыл бұрын

I may start by saying, for me the goal of the process is to serve the client in a better and sustainable way. So if we find some processes are not adding value for a client we need to see what value they add? Something on same line we spoke in this video : kzread.info/dash/bejne/ZG16upWseba8mNY.html

Nowadays during interview people want to use agile with cost and schedule baseline of waterfall... PM is very subjective domain... The best fit answer for any question changes from domain to domain... I have been through an interview where interviewer asked situation based question and then countered my answer with long term stategy decisions unrelated to context of question... It is very difficult to gauge what is going on in an interviewer mind and what exactly he wants to listen...

@izenbridge

2 жыл бұрын

Its usually based on rough order of estimate of effort and budget available, this is also usually case in non agile projects also, many time we estimate the team size well before listing the requirements.

In terms of end date etc, can outlining a Roadmap help the stakeholder to provide a end date / range?

I am not sure if many frameworks define the term Release Management Team well, in SAFe we do have a meeting to explore possible Releases and their Management. In general, an organization need to define the group that understand the business needs and make a decision on the release of the features which are ready for release.

Hi Sir, If a person working in Pharma industry for Product development project-On Project management role, and, want shift to industry like IT or Healthcare those support pharma business or having some sort of linkage with Pharma industry. What should be the approaches to shift the industry even after doing PMP, Prince2? I found that, they take interview and end up with feedback that we are looking for IT/Healthcare person who has worked already in this domain PM. I'm working in Pharma R&D PM role since 10 years but surprised to know that why other industries are rigid in nature to hire pharma PMs to IT or other domain even though i saw people are welcomed from IT or other industry to Pharma for PM role on good salary. You please explain or give me a chance to connect with you over a call and upload on your channel so that so many of people like me can get a clear understanding of it and make their move very planned and safe without frustration.

I have one question on a situation : Suppose I have a story of 5 story points in current sprint, due to some reason ( blocker) I am able to burn only 3 and 2 are pending, ideally story is a spil over to next sprint, but is whole story spilling over to next sprint ? 5 points is not correct, it should be 2, how to manage this situation ?

It depends on the value of work done, if that part of work is testable and can meet DoD, it is good to spilt the story with splitting of story points as well. So its a negotiation between PO and Team.
