Presented by Peter Moon

Many organizations complain about the chasm between business stakeholders and software development teams. Improved requirements, planning, and project management controls help you deliver on promise, but they often fall short when it comes to prioritizing what to build. In this talk, Peter will show how to use design practices to increase innovation, autonomy, team health, and generate more business value in the backlog.
