When planning for a distributed PI Planning with a significant difference in time zones, what is a key

preparation and facilitation focus?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: D

When planning for a distributed PI Planning event with significant time zone differences, it's crucial to adjust the PI planning agenda to accommodate the time zones involved1. This may involve extending the agenda to 2.5-3 days to allow for overlapping hours where all participants can be actively involved1. The goal is to ensure that every team member, regardless of their location, can contribute to the planning process and that the necessary collaboration and communication occur effectively. This adjustment helps in overcoming the challenges posed by the time zone differences and supports a more inclusive and integrated planning experience for all members of the Agile Release Train (ART)1.

I recall that adjusting the agenda to fit overlapping hours, as in option D, was emphasized in our last mock exam. It seems practical for time zone challenges.

I think splitting the event by time zones, like in option B, could help manage fatigue, but we practiced more on keeping everyone together for engagement.

I remember discussing the importance of local Scrum Masters in our study group, so option A seems relevant, but I'm not entirely sure if it's the best focus.

This is a good question. I think the best approach would be to have a single Release Train Engineer and technical support person who can act as a central point of communication for all the locations. That way, we can keep everything aligned and ensure a smooth PI Planning event.

Okay, I think I've got this. The key is to make sure the local Scrum Masters and Team Coaches are involved in the preparation, so they can help set up the local rooms and logistics. That way, we can have a more coordinated and effective event across the different time zones.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. There are a few different options presented, and I'm not sure which one would be the best approach. I guess I'd want to think about how to make sure everyone is engaged and has a voice, even if they're in different locations.
