So how exactly do we build our product?

Consider the old approach: the classic “Waterfall”.

Great for airplanes, not for SMB software.

So how do we do it harder, better, faster, stronger

Science!

JIRA, enter stage right.

Takeaways● “Waterfall” describes the old-fashioned approach of planning everything

in advance and then building it all in sequence.

● In contrast, “Agile” describes a method of building through small, constant, and rapid iteration.

● The general philosophy is “a good product in market is better than a great product in development”.

● Agile done well does NOT mean there is no vision nor plan for the future.

● Agile as an approach can work for every department, not just dev.

Cheers!
