Agile Story Maps Course

One of our favorite, most versatile techniques deserves its own deep dive. If you agree that creating context is key to problem solving, requirements, and analysis work then story mapping is a tool you need in your tool box. What other technique helps you take the tiny parts of a product and smoosh it all together to see the shiny new product, with features prioritized and even a hint to a timeline?  In this course we’ll go beyond what is a story map to creating one, and learning how to leverage the knowledge the map gives us, no matter what role we’re in.
