Churn occurs in Agile when stories are assigned to a sprint after the team has finalized the sprint backlog and established their sprint goal. Left unchecked, it can disrupt the team’s ability to deliver on their commitments.

The presence of churn is often a signal that a team or organization’s Agile implementation is not functioning well.

How do you calculate churn in order to assess the impact of it on your team and stakeholders?

What are some ways the Team, Product Owner, and Scrum Master can address and manage churn?

Learn the answers by attending this webinar. Attendees will come away with a better understanding of Agile churn and how to effectively manage it.
