Beyond Small Stories: Finding True Value in Agile Work
Why breaking things down is not the same as delivering value.
1. Challenge Popular Notions
Don't follow Agile slogans blindly. Test them in your context.
2. Size ≠ Value
Smaller stories are manageable, but not always meaningful.
3. Think Coins, Not Fragments
Broken pieces of $1 are useless. Coins add up to real value.
4. INVEST Wisely
"'S" means "Succinctly Small" - clear and valuable, not just tiny.
5. Experiment & Learn
Agile grows when you challenge myths and try new ways.
