Self-assessment
Here are some things you can think about on your own, related to this chapter's contents:
- What would your projects look like if you didn't start with a methodology in mind? Do you have a better idea for a project method you will follow?
- Since a waterfall project starts from a defined list of deliverables, how will you talk to your clients about changes they request in the middle of the project?
- With my proposed hybrid waterfall/agile approach, when is the right time to explain the approach to a client? Upfront, as part of selling your service to them? Or only when they start to ask for changes during the implementation?
- How does your business currently handle adapting to changes the client asks for? Are you in the strict the-contract-is-all-you-get camp or are you one of the all-you-can-eat type of service providers? Which is the best approach, in your opinion?
