You manage a product delivery organization. Your manager asks you to create a plan for the next fiscal year describing what will be delivered. What is the best way to proceed? (choose the best answer)

AWork with the Product Owner(s) to analyze current delivery capabilities against demand, then use that data to build a probabilistic forecast that serves to illustrate what might be achieved.

BUse your knowledge to make the plan and later negotiate its implementation with the Scrum Team.

CWork with specialists from each team to build an estimated backlog that you can translate into a Gantt chart.

DAsk each Scrum Team to estimate the current backlog and make a plan against the story points previously delivered. Then normalize story points across teams to combine the estimates.

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: A

In Agile, future planning should be based on empirical evidence, using past performance to inform what might be realistically achieved in the future. Probabilistic forecasting gives a more realistic view by accounting for variability in team performance and aligning with Agile's iterative, adaptive approach. It avoids overcommitment and provides transparency, promoting better stakeholder communication.

I think option A makes the most sense since it involves analyzing current capabilities and demand, which is something we practiced in our last workshop.
