  • The agile manifesto and its principles guide us in our project activities. This chapter translates these values into usable practices.
  • User Stories are used in most agile projects. We’ll take a look at why they’re there and how they usually look.
  • Most of the workshop is devoted to this chapter, which answers the following questions: How do you break down stories? how to visualize workflows? how to manage development tactically? how to optimize for value?
  • User stories are integrated into overall product management. Here, we’ll look at techniques that are effective for managing the requirements list or Product Backlog in the context of Scrum.
