[@uchihakwe]

As a PM instructor, this is one of the best explanations of Agile Project Management I have ever come across.

[@prettydimples5210]

Anytime you add food to explain something, I always understand!! Thank you!

[@thatsthatshhh521]

I know that's right! This is one of the best explanations of this process that I have reviewed!!!

[@mckaylahephzibah8045]

😂 amazing comment

[@ArgunKonuk]

OMG I have been watching videos and reading articles for hours but all of the material was awfully presented. This video made everything so easy to understand in less than 5 minutes. Thank you so much!!!!

[@montreecehardy3826]

Hands down - the BEST explanation of agile!!! Thank you!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@Godfirst91]

short and concise, thank you.

[@randomaccount672]

Thanks, Becca. This has been the best explanation I have stumbled across so far.

[@victorlandi1226]

Thank you, I enjoyed the video, learned from it, and was able to plan my next meal. Keep up the great work!!!!

[@Dalai33]

What a great video. Clear and right to the point thank you.

[@rkolaj3772]

Thanks Becca 👍🏽 you are the best teacher in the whole wide world. Could have wished for a better explanation of AGILE.

[@estebangodoy773]

Awesome! This is the most underrated 4:25 min video on KZbin

[@estebangodoy773]

@@thedigitalprojectmanager it helped a lot in class :)

[@arseneboundaone3560]

So true! Why doesn't it have more views? LoL I know there aren't a bunch of agile PMs out there but still. Great job for sure @The Digital Project Manager

[@rut8851]

Thank you. I've learned more in 4 minutes than 1 hour of other videos. I'm trying to get a Scrum Master role but see a lot of Agile Project Management (I have experience in Project Management). I was curious if I should apply so am trying to increase knowledge. Thanks!

[@jldscholarshipfund]

Great explanation!! The best explanation I’ve heard so far. Thanks for sharing.

[@afaqahmadkhan2582]

Wonderful! I have read much but I got all the study placed in my mind after watching this video. Thank you!

[@thedigitalprojectmanager]

Love this! So glad we could help solidify what you've already learned! 💙

[@rcarterbrown1]

I love the outtakes at the end!

[@idopointlessthings2]

Your explanation was clearly and concisely presented. Thank you!

[@timgaimakov2751]

Thank you, this video helped me to understand Agile

[@Tech_Traveler]

Perfect video. so clean and easy to understand.

[@thedigitalprojectmanager]

Hi @Tech_Traveler! Thanks for the feedback. Glad it helped!

[@KCB-eg5sd]

Thank you so much!, for this video but more for taking the time to answer us! I really learned a lot about a podcast you recommendded in one of the comments down.

[@starlingr530]

Excellent explanation, creative way of presenting the concept!

[@macarulez291]

if you do not count on the matter that you need to turn all the volume up. This is the best video I've ever seen!

[@user-ju1bg1to3l]

wow what a presentation, you made our life easy thank you. short crisp and to the point

[@deekingsley1805]

Thank you, great explanation. So how do you define a deadline (e.g. launch date for a website) with Agile if you keep making modifications as you go along?

[@justakiss15]

This was a great video!!! Very clear and easy to understand, thank you!

[@kintho1]

good explanation, real world implementation will depend on the systems to be deployed, the governance requirements and commercial & contractually binding deliverables.

[@joannailemobayo5677]

Thank you for the explanation.

[@eurekadocumentary]

i see that laugh at the end and i subscribed 😂❤😂

[@thedigitalprojectmanager]

We like to have fun around here 😂 💙

Thank you so much for this video!

[@RAJENDRATANDALErbt]

Very simple and nice explanation to understand...

[@latresiapeak5505]

Thank you for making this video

[@squarerootofyggdrasil8576]

Such a great explanation!

[@chimauzoho533]

Simple and short.. thank you

[@luishernandezlovera]

That was a good explanation! Using burgers as an example, would the client need to pay for all the burgers that were part of the trial until reached the last version?

[@jaimerenee]

This is the best example of agile. Thank you so much for this

[@thedigitalprojectmanager]

We're so glad you found it helpful!

[@royax5132]

how do you treat change requests in agile? will it be entertained only after the sprint has been finished or while the sprint is ingoing?

[@Miy03]

Excellent video, thanks so much!

[@tharunraju416]

SUCH A GREAT VIDEO LOVED IT A LOTTTTTTTTTTTTT

[@samwelmayuki5889]

Good description

[@chimakent1679]

This is cool. It's so pragmatic. 👍

[@alishirilawyer]

Thank you Becca.

[@king_big_pp]

Have to send this to tons of people. They're still under the impression that "agile" means "faster"

[@petertragardh4571]

What if we don't have flexible requirements? What if you, for instance, are implementing a standardised protocol? It has to work this one and only way. What happens to the iterative process, delivering value to evaluate?

[@Big_Mo_Zak]

Excellent!

[@kristianasdf]

Wow, so you do projects in iterations! What brave and great innovations!

[@kristianasdf]

With feedbacks?? Why haven't anyone thought of this before??

[@hubertg7100]

Outstanding!

[@luiscanjura6543]

Thanks !!

[@aimanhulmani4105]

If you're using agile For software development do you need someone from that background or can any one with the knowledge of scrum management do it?

[@user-yp7yj3pv1v]

Excellent, thank you so much

[@thedigitalprojectmanager]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@haevinc]

I don't have this experience but I've done projects in construction. I don't consider myself as pm but would love to apply for dpm jobs in a week. I've got experience but I'm tech idiot. Can I be successful for this job? I kinda lack knowledge but what I'm listening I'm understanding. And where exactly are such projects executed? What app or program? Should I be provided by a company with this or should i make some Excel stuff?

[@JiMo711]

So the agile methodology is broken simple to learning and developing by overlapping risk management, quality management as well as business statistical analysis all together during operating a certain project to have an agile outcome.

[@conoromelia8435]

Very good video, well explained. Thank you

[@ayshayusuf1290]

Good video

[@tinicoleofficial]

Reason why I’m searching this out is bc I’m considering a career in IT most likely in cybersecurity

[@nevinkuser9892]

Great, now where do I get that mushroom burger?

[@aaronv5468]

I work as a Digital Project Manager, Managing a team of web designers and developers. Is Agile a good fit, for web creation?

[@Rustyybucket]

Absolutely, you deliver key features of the website after each sprints.

[@jenniferrasp-vaughn6642]

How does PDSA and agile differ, other than in speed of change?

[@thedigitalprojectmanager]

Great question! We aren't too familiar with PDSA but like agile, it appears to be a human-centric collaborative framework with iterative cycles driven by feedback. Agile methodologies like Scrum perhaps go a bit further to have more structure in terms of terminology, ceremonies, and artefacts that help a team get aligned on process almost instantaneously - it’s like speaking the same language. PDSA seems a bit more of an experimentation framework to limit and localize the idea to be validated with intentionality. While it appears to have some core themes in common, it doesn’t seem to be labeled a project management methodology. Hope this helps 💙

[@oliverallan3719]

Nice analogy, music is way too loud though

[@deidrarichards5801]

It does make a better end product but doesn't this make the time to deliver the end product longer?

[@benives5101]

Please explain how agile approach can be used in a large construction project such as a hospital? You can't trial and error that.

[@johantorroledo3484]

User review process. It’s an iterative process where say at 30% review customer provides feedback

[@supersebastiansskolyoutube]

So, agile is just a way to say "Trail and error"..?

[@qianshali]

hey, do you have a community to help me practice the methode ?

[@thedigitalprojectmanager]

We do! Check it out here: thedigitalprojectmanager.com/membership/

[@sophie-bellecompany9349]

very good, just the music at the background is too loud, - thanks

[@FlyCreez]

This sounds easy.

[@h.t.7310]

Very nice video. Too bad however every little thing in this world is about how money can be made. Money is what every one needs and Agile is all about making good use of money. Yes?

[@PMPeasyeducation]

Do you know that you can get PDUs by watching youtube videos? You can watch the videos that is related to the project management and after you complete the Video you can report it under informal learning on the CCR and if your reported claim choosing to be reviewed you need to upload a document with notes summarize what you have watched it for PMI team to review it. You can check this playlist this link: kzbin.info/aero/PLgSA-z5XLMJg-j_mVDs73t3UDcWNeJOvy and on the completion of this playlist you can claim 13 PDUs, This will refresh your memory if you are certified and will help you prepare for the PMP exam if you are not yet certified.

[@desertfalcon6625]

Isnt there a lot of wastage occurring in making burger again and again? in terms of agile Methodology

[@thedigitalprojectmanager]

Heh, yes, this is perhaps where the metaphor falls down. In practice, you wouldn’t start your “burger” from scratch every iteration. You would start with a minimum viable burger, get feedback, then incorporate priority feedback into the next iteration (example: add lettuce). But, if you take the metaphor too far, by the fifth sprint you’d be delivering a half-eaten burger stuffed with new ingredients. I suppose the product in our video is actually the “recipe”. (Most products delivered using an agile approach don’t need to have a bite taken out of them in every review session! #deliciouswastage)

[@desertfalcon6625]

@@thedigitalprojectmanager Thanks much

[@icedboxtv]

could u make music louder next time please

[@BrianLink]

I think everything you said is great. But I'm curious why the word "PROJECT" is even *in* this video. When teams are truly agile, we use the skills and techniques you mention, but it's about a product and a never-ending solution that continues to add value as long as it's meaningful to your customers. We'd all be better off not even using the word Project anymore, IMO.

[@freedomfighterwabobi8435]

You are beautiful!!

[@ronin_3254]

Agile is another word for micromanagement

[@TSD0416]

Please get rid of the annoying background music. It’s unbelievable that every agile video I watch has a background music. It’s ANNOYING!!!!!!

[@iggykarpov]

This is not what agile is - not even close!. Each 2-to4 week iteration(i.e. sprint) delivers new features, not fixing bugs, as in this silly burger analogy. Please ignore!

[@thedigitalprojectmanager]

Thanks for sharing your thoughts! 😊 You're absolutely right that agile methodologies primarily focus on delivering new features during sprints. The burger analogy was just a simple way to explain the concept that the chef would be adding new toppings according the diner's feedback rather than creating a new burger each iteration. So for instance, adding bacon/pickles/lettuce would be like adding a new shippable feature to the product rather than fixing a bug. We have a more recent video on the topic if you're interested: kzbin.info/www/bejne/p2S7n3t5d5yFhLM

[@brijeshpaul9088]

Completely different person on and off cameraa

[@artemisarts]

Awful choice of metaphore. Have You heard about food cost? This narrow approach to agile is what makes people quickly deliver worthless products with close to none business worth 👍
