Refine the backlog

Create epics, user stories, and tasks to capture everything the team needs to get done. Then, evaluate roadmap-driven features alongside technical work — establishing a single prioritized backlog based on what matters most to customers and the business. Move top-priority items into sprint backlogs to plan what the team will deliver and when.

Create a sprint plan

Create a sprint plan

Schedule a sprint planning meeting. Share the sprint goal, highlighting what the team needs to achieve given the overarching product strategy. Set sprint capacity based on each engineer's availability and velocity. Then, review the sprint backlog together, assigning work and assessing its feasibility based on the definition of done. Commit to the plan and go boldly forward.

Release quality software

Release quality software

Keep sprints running smoothly. Use an interactive workflow board to track progress in real time and monitor burndown to see the sprint's pace. Gather the team for a daily standup to share updates and discuss any blockers. Foster strong collaboration across product, design, and engineering to develop high-quality features that meet user requirements.

Highlight value delivered

Highlight value delivered

Hold a sprint review at the end of each iteration. Demonstrate new functionality the team built and gather feedback from stakeholders. Conduct a retrospective to reflect on how the sprint went — using a whiteboard to make sure everyone has a voice. Discuss what went well, identify ways to improve, and document what you will do differently next time.

Analyze team performance
