Tell their story
#216 - Mar.2025
A user story is...(yes) a story. It should describe a user's work and problem, not the engineering required to solve it.
When creating user stories, context and motivation are much more important elements than describing the solution.
Only once the context and motivation is clear, you can start adding performance elements (The "Wow" effect).
Following this structure already gives you a simple prioritization strategy within each user story:
- Focus on delivering the functional foundation to deliver the basic outcomes.
- Then bring the performance and "wow" elements as you iterate and learn.
