Too often, teams focus on the ‘how’ instead of the ‘why’. They write user stories with vague, vanilla value statements and skip straight to the tasks they think need to be done. Better User Stories shows you how to coach others…
Mike Jones – Better User Stories

“You could sit down for 15-20 minutes and get what felt like a day’s workshop.”
“The ‘definitive authority’ is the phrase that comes to mind when I think about Mike Cohn and User Stories.
As an agile trainer, I frequently refer my clients to Mike’s Better User Stories course as a cost-effective, high-value way to significantly improve their personnel’s user story writing skills.
Take this course and learn from the best!”
What can you do with Better User Stories?
Develop skills that are desperately needed today
The adoption of user stories is rapidly increasing, but companies struggle to get them right. Savvy agilists are seizing this opportunity to specialize in user stories. When you’re the person who can make user stories work for any team, and any organization, you’re a vital (and valuable) asset.
Stay focused on the end-user to deliver the BEST solution
Too often, teams focus on the ‘how’ instead of the ‘why’. They write user stories with vague, vanilla value statements and skip straight to the tasks they think need to be done. Better User Stories shows you how to coach others (persuasively) to stay focused on the end-user value in each user story. This makes your team much more likely to deliver something stakeholders will love.
Ramp up velocity with a different approach to splitting…
Can you really split stories that can be completed in an iteration, but aren’t so small that they leave stakeholders underwhelmed? Yes… but it requires an approach that is new to many agile teams. This course shows you exactly how to split any story without hours of discussion. You’ll also know how many stories you should have per person, how to tell if your stories are too small (and when you should stop splitting), and whether you might need a longer iteration to complete them.

Eliminate endless rework with a step-by-step writing system
Does your Product Owner write user stories only for the development team to ignore them? Is precious time wasted on revisions because of missing features? Better User Stories gives you a systematic approach to writing user stories that combine the stakeholder vision AND the technical perspective needed to deliver it. Finally you can answer all questions about who should write them, how you should write them, how often and when, and most importantly – how to get everyone invested in writing user stories (without standing on a soap box).
Finally answer the question of “How much detail?!”
Adding detail to user stories creates a multitude of problems: how do you stop vague one-line descriptions that stall progress? Should you spend hours pinning down scope so the team isn’t blamed if something gets missed? With this course you’ll learn how to write stories that are detailed enough to start quickly, but broad enough so the team can unleash their creativity when delivering the solution.
