Episode 61 — Prioritization: Ordering with Customers and Stakeholders
This episode explores how prioritization becomes the key mechanism for maximizing value within agile delivery. Learners discover how transparent, criteria-based ordering helps balance limited capacity against competing needs. The discussion introduces models such as cost of delay, value–risk balance, and stakeholder weighting, which provide structure for prioritization decisions. By making trade-offs explicit, teams prevent hidden agendas or political influence from derailing value delivery.
Practical examples illustrate how PMI exam scenarios often require candidates to evaluate which prioritization technique best aligns with customer outcomes and organizational goals. The session emphasizes that prioritization is not about appeasing the loudest voice but about sequencing work to maximize validated value. Teams that prioritize effectively create trust with stakeholders and deliver impact consistently. Produced by BareMetalCyber.com.
