SUMMARY:Agile Estimation Advanced: Beyond Story Points
DESCRIPTION:Facilitated by Ola M.\nStory points work. But they're not the o
 nly way — and sometimes they're not the best way.\nWelcome to Advanced Ag
 ile Estimation:\nThis session challenges some of the assumptions most Agile
  teams make about estimation and introduces approaches that may work better
  for your team's context. Whether you're a story points believer or a skept
 ic\, you'll leave with a broader toolkit and sharper thinking about how to 
 forecast work.\nWhat We'll Cover:\n• A quick honest review of story point
 s: what they're good for and where they break down• T-shirt sizing: when 
 rough is better than precise• #NoEstimates: the argument for skipping est
 imation entirely and using count-based forecasting• Flow-based forecastin
 g: using historical throughput and cycle time to predict delivery dates• 
 Monte Carlo simulation: how probabilistic forecasting works and why it beat
 s single-point estimates• Right-sizing stories as an alternative to estim
 ating them• Estimation in scaled environments: how PI Planning and progra
 m-level estimation work• When to estimate and when estimation is waste•
  Having honest conversations with stakeholders about uncertainty and foreca
 sting\nLive Exercise:\nWe'll take a real backlog and forecast it three diff
 erent ways — story points\, throughput-based\, and right-sizing — and c
 ompare the results.\nWho Should Attend:\n• Scrum Masters and POs frustrat
 ed with estimation ceremonies that consume too much time• Teams that have
  been using story points for years and want to challenge their assumptions
 • Anyone preparing for SAFe or advanced Scrum certifications\nBenefits of
  Attending This Session:\nParticipants will leave with multiple estimation 
 approaches they can evaluate for their team\, the ability to forecast deliv
 ery dates without relying on velocity alone\, and the language to have smar
 ter planning conversations with leadership.
