value framework – Derk-Jan de Grood

I’m really excited to share that within Innspire, we’ve launched a new podcast series!

Together with three inspiring colleagues—Andre, Nienke, and Marcel—we’ll be releasing episodes on Transformation, IT, Software Development, and Agile. So far, we’ve created one pilot episode, and today I recorded the first official podcast.

In this episode, I speak with Berry Vermeulen and Michel Kooiman about Benefits Management: what it is and why every organization should care about it. We also discuss the relationship between Benefits Management and the value determination of backlog items. The Value Framework helps translate the product vision into backlog items. The benefit of this approach is that we focus on the right things, can better explain why we make certain choices, and significantly increase the chances that, when we complete something, it will help the organization move toward its goals. We conclude that even in organizations where the benefits are not easily measurable, the combination of Benefits Management and the Value Framework can still be effective.

Berry Vermeulen is a Senior Consultant at Mobile, and Michel Kooijman is a Product Owner.
