Scope always grows
www.agily.com.au
Can we control scope?
www.agily.com.au
even in start ups
www.agily.com.au
..so many
features to
build…. Yeah… it
sucks
Why do we do big things?
www.agily.com.au
Why are big things bad?
www.agily.com.au
Pivot or Persevere
www.agily.com.au
The scientific method
“The scientific method is a body
of techniques for investigating phenomena,
acquiring new knowledge, or correcting and
integrating previous knowledge. To be termed
scientific, a method of inquiry is commonly
based on empirical or measurable evidence…”
- Wikipedia
www.agily.com.au
Let’s be experimental with MVPs
“An MVP is not a product. It’s a test. It asks, will a
product like this work?”
- Jessica Kerr
www.agily.com.au
An approach
Use the following 3 things to create your tiny
MVPs:
1. Hypothesis
2. How you will measure it
3. Null Hypothesis
www.agily.com.au
The Workshop!
Work in your groups and choose your example
to create:
1. Hypothesis
2. How you will measure it
3. Null Hypothesis
www.agily.com.au
Tricks, Tips and Hints
* Use the magic of the Null Hypothesis
* Ask yourself “What could I deploy to the world
in one month (2 iterations)
www.agily.com.au
The results?

Ways to implement
(OR how to get around the rules)
• Use seed funding to run your test
• Form a cross functional team
• Hire alt roles (for Silo’d working)
• Try it in a BAU team
• Re-purpose a Vendor team
• Find an advocate in the business
• Cheap prototype and user test
• Business/Product Canvas
