For Scrum , it happens at the end of the Sprint , whereas for Kanban , it can be based on cadence. As with the Scrum framework, we will have retrospectives built into our Hybrid-Agile plan. Diagram of multiple Sprints planned along with the predictive/waterfall elements. But then: How do we manage these retrospective items?

History and learning can help us with our project planning and execution. Mark Twain We may think we can plan our way to success, but that is not true, at least from experience. I have never planned a project that did not require adapting to emerging events or responding to new learning as a function of doing the work.

In this Hybrid-ScrumBan project: The first few phases, such as Start-up and Planning , occur only in the Waterfall or Predictive mode. Let’s start with planning for the Traditional part!

As I’ve explained in a previous article, flow-based Agile can benefit from cadences. We have multiple Sprints planned, but detailed planning is only currently available for the first Sprint, i.e., Sprint 1. The Sprint 1 Planning event has been completed, and a number of Daily Scrums are also completed.

What do you do with planning cadences? And so, I was working on this company called Check free in the PMO, doing PMI style project management and I was working with development teams and there was a guy who’s on my team now named Brian Sondergaard, who I worked for.

When I first started thinking through this idea, I was actually really thinking about the idea of practices because back in 2010, a little bit earlier than that, Jim Kundiff, the Scrum Alliance, and those guys were really popularizing the CSM certification, PMI was doing the PMI ACP or a lot of us were part of that.

Actual dates are different from planned or estimated dates. Approach Analysis is used during the Planning phase of each project.
