You’ll learn about story points and ideal days and the advantages to each.
You’ll leave knowing how to produce fixed-date, fixed-scope, and fixed-price plans you can be confident in, as well as how to avoid anchoring and other common pitfalls.
You’ll understand how story points differ from simply using hours,
You’ll understand how to estimate as quickly as possible with Planning Poker, and both approaches to iteration planning so you can help your team.
You will learn to answer “When can I get all of these features?” or “How much can I get by June?” from Customers/Stakeholders

We’ve all heard that setting priorities in our personal lives is key to achieving our goals.
Some of us hire personal coaches to get our lives in order, but when it comes to what we do within the office, all that planning goes out the window.
Organizations today are running at a much faster pace than ever before. We have technology glued to us at all times so that we can quickly respond to things.
But should we really?
This month Core Performance Concepts will talk about the benefits of prioritizing our days both at home and at work.
They understand that you don’t always have control over the priorities that may be set for you in the office, but will discuss some strategies and approaches to gaining clarity of purpose when your supervisor says something is urgent or if you are feeling like you have too many projects on your plate.
At the end of this session, they will ask for attendees to submit a scenario they would like to have discussed in their May 27th panel. They will share experiences and strategies for helping you get your time in control.
