Thanks Stay, much appreciated.
Solid high level breakdown over just a few minutes, nice video!
Thanks very much Nicholas, encouragement like this means a lot, so really appreciate it.
I love this video, very simple very clear and focusing on the importance aspects! I really like at around 2 mins where you talk about intend. Your video really does what it says on the TIN! SAFe in the real world!
Thanks very much, much appreciated!
Simple & straight forward, thanks ^^
Thanks so much !
Great! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks Samuel, your welcome. 👍
i like your way of presenting the knowledge.
Thanks very much Nezakot, it means a lot.
Great video !
Thanks Chakib.
Great video, greetings from Romania!
Thank you very much!
How would you describe the Intent part in more practical terms? For example, what kind of outputs does PI planning produce vs sprint planning? Do you plan just for Features and not Stories into sprints at all? What I see happening in organizations starting with SAFe is that the PI planning event is effectively "Sprint planning for 3-4 sprints at the same time, in a three hour breakout". Which of course doesn't make any sense, given the uncertainties over a PI timeframe.
Hi camshaft, thanks for raising this. This is a common anti-pattern I too, like you have witnessed repeatedly. In terms of intent, my view is that PI Planning is a high level roadmap - with goals to achieve during that longer horizon, not a detailed sprint plan covering a longer horizon. PI Planning is not Sprint Planning on steroids - otherwise you might as well just shift your sprint cadence to 6-8 weeks (as the effect/impact would be the same in terms). I do plan for story 'placeholders' - so we would have maybe a rough indicative title /goal for the story, but sparce details, especially when looking at sprint 2 onwards. (For Sprint 1 due to practical reasons of proximity to Sprint Planning 1 you would load your sprint more than latter ones - Emergent Planning). Come to think of it - I may put a video out on that - thanks for the trigger - hope I answered your questions in this rambling response :) ... Have a great day.
your video is good and explaining the differenct. I would appreciate if you focus equal on both. in your video you are focussing on ART more then Scrum.
Hi Sajeel, good point, thanks for the suggestion, will certainly bear in mind for future videos.
Can you please let us know what is confidence voting in agile? how to do confidence voting ? what things to consider or Parameter about the plan needs to consider while doing voting ?
Hi Anuj, Thanks for your interesting question. Confidence Voting is a mechanism frequently used during PI Planning (though can be used in other contexts too) to judge the confidence of the participants in the validity of the activity (in this case PI Planning). It is as simple as a joint voting exercise (start from the most confident (5) to least (1)). Ask yourself, how confident are you with the plan? Is there anything missing or are there known risks/impediments. Your assumptions are they viable and realistic, have you put together a feasible plan based upon your previous performance / velocity etc? If so you can give a higher vote, it not a lower one. Vote for your own area and your own viewpoint. Probably a video - come to think about it :) ... thanks for the question.
This video was helping me to get pov "what happen with our development plan". But I have some questions, who are the participant of PI planning, are same with Sprint planning ?
What kind of material in PI planning, while Sprint planning will intents to Product Backlog, and Sprint Backlog as the output ?
Hi Andreas, sorry for the delay in responding, I've been away for a bit. Everyone on the Agile Release Train should be part of the PI Planning together with key stakeholders. You can get step by step answers on how to run your PI Planning event here: czcams.com/play/PLE6XrAXqINHmZOySxC3joO5Uq-zpVKNQK.html
You will need to take in your PI Vision, Programme Backlog and Architectural Runway as inputs, with PI and Team Objectives, Programme (dependency) board and team boards as outputs together with Risks and Impediments. Hope this helps ! Ahmed.
I like this video but i would like to know the difference in terms of Inputs and Outputs. Can someone help ? thanks
Hi Mojuste, thanks for your question. This is a very good point, which I left off (oops 😉), so lets cover that here:
Inputs - SAFe Scrum:
1. Stories, 2. Pi Plan, 3. Team Capacity(historic), 4. Pertinent Feedback from retro.
Inputs PI Planning:
1. Vision; 2. Roadmap; 3. Features 4. Arch Runway; 5. Feedback from previous PIs;
I also like a Team Matrix which maps Teams to Features and shows responsibilities.
Outputs -Scrum:
1. Sprint Goals
2. Sprint Story Plan
3. Risks / Impediments.
Outputs -PI Plan:
1. PI Goals
2. PI Dependency Board.
3. Team PI Emergent Plan.
4. Program/ Team Risks/ Impediments.
Hello! I am Sergi Dalakiani
I am Certified Scrum Master
Could you please simulate the P/I planning so we could see the scenario of real one
Hi Sergi, think this is a great idea, so happy to put together a series. Any ideas for the system we should be using? If not I'll probably put a channel post out to see if anyone has any ideas, failing that I'll use one of my real-life ones ... let's see. Thanks for the comment :)
