Abstract
Agile has fast become the now preferred approach to project management.
The traditional, sequential approach to project management is a formal, documentation
heavy process to running and managing projects. The transition from a sequential
approach to an agile approach to project management, has proved challenging. One of
the key areas of concerns for project managers, has been how they could effectively
monitor, track and forecast the project deliverables and progress within an agile
approach to projects. Agile is a light weight, leaner approach to running projects,
however in this, the traditional mechanisms by which a project manager could track
the progress of work, is no longer available to project managers. However, the
concept of a wall or a storyboard to highlight and track work, has proved incredibly
useful for the project team as well as the project manager alike. The aim of this
manuscript is to introduce agile and the way storyboards have evolved to become one
of the most powerful tools available to project managers within agile projects.
