Risk, Agile, and teams

Risk registers, Agile and Scrum basics, and keeping the team aligned.

Study notes

  1. A risk is an uncertain event that could affect the project. A risk register lists each risk with likelihood, impact, owner, and response.
  2. Risk responses include avoid, mitigate, transfer (for example insurance), and accept.
  3. Agile delivers work in short cycles and adjusts based on feedback. Scrum is one Agile framework with sprints, usually one to four weeks.
  4. Scrum roles: the product owner orders the backlog, the Scrum Master supports the process, and developers build the increment.
  5. Daily stand-ups are short check-ins on progress, plans, and blockers, not status reports for a manager.
