Governance is Built Into DAD
• Governance strategies built into DAD:
– Risk-value lifecycle
– Light-weight milestone reviews
– “Standard” opportunities for increased visibility and to steer the team
provided by agile
– Enterprise awareness
– Robust stakeholder definition
What Does it Mean to
Be Disciplined?

to follow many agile practices
and philosophies
• But, it also requires discipline to:
– Reduce the feedback cycle
– Learn continuously
– Deliver solutions incrementally
– Be goal driven
– Enterprise aware
– Streamline Inception and
Transition efforts
– Adopt agile governance
strategies
