"I Want a 'Do Everything' Button!" The Journey of a Task from Idea to Release
"We need a button. Urgently." Three weeks later the button is ready — but it does something else entirely. Sound familiar? Nobody is to blame: business and IT simply speak different languages.
In this webinar we follow one task all the way from an employee's idea to a working feature. You'll see how to write a request that gets done right the first time, what actually happens to a task inside IT, and why a "simple tweak" can take weeks. Plus, which Agile practices any department can start using tomorrow.
What you'll learn:
- how to turn "I want a button" into a clear task: the "role → action → value" formula and "Given / When / Then" scenarios;
- why you should talk to IT before writing a request — and why every change costs money;
- what hides behind a "simple button" and where delivery time really goes;
- how the business can speed up its own task without breaking the process;
- how sprints, a shared task board and retrospectives help teams beyond IT.
Who it's for: anyone who sets tasks for IT teams, department heads, analysts, project managers — and everyone who wants business and development to finally understand each other.
Bonus: after the webinar, every participant gets an IT request template and a "good request" checklist.
Format: online, MS Teams. November 12, 2:00 PM Astana time, about 70 minutes, Q&A at the end. The webinar is held in Russian.
