Nick Coster, Co-Founder, Brainmates, on Agile-Business Gap

The best Agile practitioners and thought leaders state that products developed using Agile methods should be linked to the organizational strategies and objectives. In practice however Agile does not provide any guidance for product managers or business owners on how to make this link work. We call this the Agile Business Gap that exists between the objectives set out in a Business Case and the effective formulation of prioritized user stories that feed in to an agile development process.

"I'm looking forward to discussing how we have applied components of our Product Development Framework to the Agile Business Gap, in a way that embraces the core philosophies of the Agile approach," states Nick.
