Stop wasting time and money
#NoEstimates is an approach to software development that arose from the observation that large amounts of time were spent over the years in estimating and improving those estimates, but we see no value from that investment.
Indeed, according to scholars Conte, Dunmore and Shens a good estimate is one that is within 25% of the actual cost, 75% of the time.
This is the same as saying: give us your money, we promise not lose more than 25% of it (with a 25% probability that we will lose a lot more). We don’t find that acceptable or productive for our industry.
There must be better ways to manage software and product development.
What will you learn in this course?
In this workshop we will review and analyze why we do estimates and how we can improve software and product development while reducing the time and money invested in estimating.

Cosa dicono di questo workshop:
Very useful and totally worth it! #NoEstimates makes you look differently at agile estimating and planning approaches. Even if you are not going to give estimates up, you will surely rethink their value and alternatives.
I would recommend this workshop to anyone willing to get out of the big bubble lie “sharp estimation is the key factor for success”.
My two biggest takeaway from #NoEstimates workshop were:
1- the idea of delivery every 24 hours, continuously and until your customer get bored with it!
2- the examples to understand the System Stability behaviour with heuristic rules to predict system (or team) performance.
