5 Lessons For Agile Planning in Jira
https://www.oldstreetsolutions.com/jira-dashboards-for-planningIn this episode, we will be discussing five important lessons for agile planning in Jira, and some tips on how to improve planning in the platform.Planning in native Jira can be challenging, and can lead to issues and confusion, as we experienced in my previous company. However, better planning can make all the difference, and digital whiteboard tools for Jira, as well as Jira dashboards, can help to streamline the process.To get better at agile planning, it's important to shift from a "waterfall" mindset to an agile one. This means planning as you go, instead of trying to plan everything up front. Unfortunately, my previous company struggled with this mindset shift.Luckily, Jira dashboards and Custom Charts for Jira can be excellent tools for planning as you go. However, it's important to start by making and assigning Jira issues and to use Confluence or a Jira whiteboard tool to create your Work Breakdown Structure and get your project off the ground.To summarize, here are the five lessons for agile planning in Jira:As you plan your agile projects in Jira, keep in mind these core lessons that we learned at our former company. They can help you to streamline your agile planning process and make it more efficient:Lesson 1: Remember that you're an agile team, not a waterfall team. Avoid documenting every requirement at the outset, as requirements tend to change. Agile documentation should be just good enough and produced just in time.Lesson 2: Capture plans digitally. Make sure your plans are captured digitally, even if you start them on physical whiteboards so that everyone working in Jira can access them.Lesson 3: Make plans for the platform you're working in. If you're using Jira and Confluence, make your plans in Jira and Confluence. You could also install a digital whiteboards tool like Miro or Agile Planning Boards.Lesson 4: Build a Work Breakdown Structure. Break down big and complex projects into manageable chunks, and organize them in Jira with initiatives, epics, stories, and sub-tasks.Lesson 5: Use retrospectives to plan better next time. Review your team's performance and project progress during the sprint retrospective, and use the insights to improve your next planning session.We hope that these tips will help you with your agile planning in Jira.Thank you for tuning in to our podcast today.
