Sprint Planning Meetings - Agile Coach (2019)

This video covers how to run a successful sprint planning meeting. Learn the in’s and out’s of sprint goals, prioritization, and velocity with the Atlassian Agile Coach.

The team prioritizes actions based on what’s necessary to meet the sprint goal. They use data points, like the team’s average velocity, to help with prioritization. Watch our video to learn what “velocity” is.

Once you set a sprint goal and determine a starting velocity, you’re ready to plan the sprint. This is when everyone walks through the stories being suggested for the sprint and discusses the work required to complete each one.

I was really looking for how the Jira software supports the planning process.

Great info but would be good to record the rest of the series away from the cafe at lunchtime :)

One of the problems we had was that 1h or even 2h were not nearly enough time to discuss enough stories for a full sprint. There were so many complexities that needed to be discussed, that oftentimes we'd only manage to get through only a couple of stories in that whole session. What to do in these situations?

I keep thinking why doesn't she blink.
Nice series though, thank you.

Sprint Goal + Velocity? This is misleading, velocity is not a measure of what you can do, at best it may be a measure of what you have done previously.

Sprint Goal vs Capacity.
