Most projects are hierarchical. There’s someone at the top of the project management team who answers to the stakeholders and directs the project manager and project team. That position is called a project executive. Of course, it’s more complicated than that, so it’s important to first define the term project executive and explain what that person does, including their main responsibilities.

In our daily lives, we pursue specific goals with numerous steps and milestones without even thinking about them. For instance, assembling an outfit or preparing a meal isn't the end goal but contributes to our desired outcome—looking good or satisfying hunger. Likewise, in product development, our roadmap should extend beyond individual features and enhancements, representing the desired outcomes.

As more and more companies scramble to untangle the code of their monolithic legacy software and get it into the cloud, strategic priorities are shifting. 10 years ago, it seemed that a little Scrum here and some coaching there would suffice. But as companies scale, as the market shifts and more parts of the business become software-focused, there’s been an increase in demand for an end-to-end solution to help large organizations build infrastructure around sound technical practices.

Construction costs are one of many metrics that a general contractor has to keep an eye on. There are others, of course, such as the schedule, quality, safety and much more.

Agile needs to be tied to business-driven results. If not, then we start measuring things like people trained, teams doing Scrum, or the organization’s sentiment toward Agile to tell us if we’re succeeding. But, in the absence of measurable business results, none of that matters. Agile is all about the ability of an organization to deliver in small batches, get fast feedback from customers, and quickly respond to change.

Teams are more effective when they release more often. Of course, these releases also need to be valuable and useful to stakeholders. The aim of all Agile methodologies, such as Scrum, is to increase the release frequency of valuable outcomes to stakeholders. There are several reasons for this. The first is that higher release frequencies provide more opportunities for teams to validate their assumptions by inspecting done increments with their stakeholders.

Before you can start a project — even before you can plan it — you first need to define the project in detail. This allows the project manager to get buy-in from the project’s key stakeholders and ensure all the research has been done to move into the planning phase without any hiccups. That’s why a project initiation document (PID) is so important.
