How to Create an Annual Budget With Agile Work
Annual budgets and Agile feel like an oxymoron. Yet for many organisations, this huge contradiction is a reality which has to be resolved. With the right preparation, mindset and can-do attitude, it is possible.
This series, unlike the others, describes a set of steps used at two different large organisations (financial services & power engineering), with one having an annual budget in excess of $20m. In this particular case, everyone was literally fighting for a piece of the pie due to fear of additional budget cuts, which did occur, down to $6.5m
What was the result? In both cases, after we followed the process, we had a budget that was transparent, understood, fair, reasonable and above defendable to scrutiny from the "powers that be".
