Agile Product Delivery and Team Dynamics

This unit develops learners’ ability to plan, track, and deliver value through agile teams and products. Students will apply agile values and principles to create product goals, roadmaps, release plans, team accountabilities, and practices for quality, communication, and continuous improvement that prepare work for release and scale.

Learning Objectives

• Analyze team values, autonomy, mastery, and purpose to recommend changes that improve collaboration and team performance
• Apply agile planning techniques to create a product goal, product roadmap, release plan, and sprint-level schedule using vertical slicing and backlog prioritization
• Demonstrate tracking, quality, and continuous-improvement practices by conducting retrospectives, using progress metrics, and performing root cause analysis to prepare work for release
• Evaluate team composition, dynamics, communication strategies, and procurement considerations to assign accountabilities and recommend approaches for colocation, scaling, and non-software contexts
