In a lot of companies, people like to scream “MVP” without knowing what it is and why you want to have it. In this talk we will walk through a couple of weeks where 5 developers and 1 UX Guy were put together to accomplish the near Impossible. Deliver a project in 3 weeks that was supposed to take 6 weeks. All of this without a Scrum master and a Product Owner.

3. Now, this is a story all about how

4. My team got flipped-turned
upside down

5. And I'd like to take a minute
To sit right there

6. I'll tell you how I became the
prince of a team called Quoters

7. Disclamer

8. Not a prince

9. Not the best way to do a project

10. Don’t learn anything from this!

11. Epic Estimation

12. DEADLINE!

13. 3 weeks left to do 6 weeks of
work

14. Well we got to think real MVP
then?

15. Let’s put a team together with
lots of seniority

16. Let’s do it without a PO

17. Let’s all be scrum master

18. Let’s to 1 day sprints

19. Let’s review every day with 12
stakeholders

20. Let’s start with a product that
barely works from start to end

21. Let’s see if the stakeholders can
use it and ask what’s missing

22. And ask what they can do
without

23. What did we learn
• Try stupid stuff
• Talk to your stakeholders
• Hacking is not MVP
• Question what is helpfull
• Start with the smallest product that works

24. Thanks!
