Description: The ‘Big Room Planning’ is an agile methodology that focuses on collaboration among multiple teams to establish a shared vision and coordinate efforts in complex projects. This practice takes place in planning sessions where representatives from different teams come together, allowing all stakeholders to have a voice in defining objectives, priorities, and tasks. The essence of big room planning lies in its collaborative approach, fostering transparency and alignment among teams, resulting in greater cohesion and efficiency in project execution. During these sessions, various techniques are employed, such as creating user story maps and identifying dependencies, to ensure that all aspects of the project are considered. This approach not only helps to identify and mitigate risks from the outset but also promotes a sense of shared responsibility among teams, which can lead to improved quality of the final product. In environments where agility and adaptability are crucial, big room planning becomes a valuable tool for facilitating collaboration and effective communication among multidisciplinary teams.
