Agile - an Executive Guide

Real Results from It Budgets

By: Jamie Lynn Cooke

Agile: An Executive Guide gives you the bottom line information that you need to harness the business value benefits of Agile within your organization, and generate significantly greater returns on your IT investment. Since the 1990s, Agile methodologies have provided the IT industry with an approach to software development that focuses on the quality, relevance and extensibility of software solutions. These methodologies overcome traditional software development issues by positioning IT resources to regularly deliver high business-value outcomes; they replace upfront investment in software solutions with incremental investment based on proven business value returns; most critically, they protect the organization from wasting money on software solutions that will only need to be reworked or replaced in the future because they do not meet the needs of the intended recipient. This book has been written with only one objective: to provide you with the information

The Power of the Agile Business Analyst

30 Surprising Ways a Business Analyst Can Add Value to Your Agile Development Team

By: Jamie Lynn Cooke

Agile methodologies go to great lengths to provide developers with the tools and support they need to produce world-class software. Yet, they rely on individual business users having sufficient knowledge, vision, objectivity, and time to ensure the best possible business solution is delivered. When business users do not receive the equivalent level of collaboration and validation that is provided to Agile developers, the team risks having the software development succeed and the overall project fail. Having an Agile business analyst on the project provides business users with critical support in identifying, verifying, and prioritizing requirements. An Agile business analyst provides Agile developers with a business-knowledgeable resource, working with them throughout the project, including valuable assistance in their analysis, design, testing, and implementation work. Drawing on over 20 years' experience as a senior business analyst and international solutions consultant, Jamie Lynn Cooke details 30 achievable ways in which Agile business analysts can increase the relevance, quality, and overall business value of your solutions, and position your projects to receive ongoing funding and executive support. Read this book and discover how an Agile business analyst can significantly increase the value of your solution.
