Enterprise-level Sprinting

Enterprises use longer cycles of work to inspect and adapt larger strategic initiatives and operational tactics.

Team-level Sprinting

Teams use the structure of agile frameworks, like Scrum, to provide guardrails for Sprinting. At the team-level, two cycles work together to understand customer value and deliver: “pay to learn” and “pay to build”.

In this way, agile teams undertake continuous discovery as well as continuous integration and release. This helps them, under the direction of the Product Owner, to maintain a focus on the customer and value.
