Sprint Planning or Sprint Guessing?
Welcome to sprint planning — that magical 90-minute meeting (that always becomes 3 hours) where:
- Developers turn into psychics
- Product managers become game show hosts
- Product owners stare into a backlog like it’s a crystal ball
Sound familiar?
For many Agile teams, sprint planning isn’t the crisp, focused ritual described in books. It’s often more ambiguous, chaotic, and filled with guessing than anyone wants to admit.
So… are you really planning? Or just giving your best estimate in a business suit?
