Really enjoyed the talk! Great delivery
A very well organized, informative and engaging talk. Estimation is by far the part of this job that I struggle with the most, and I'm fairly certain I'm not alone in that boat. In this talk Lorna throws us a lifeline by detailing a number of easy-to-follow tips & tricks (and one neat game :)) that any developer or project manager can easily add to their current workflow to improve the quality of their task estimation.
good talk and good voice tone :)
Cheers!
Nice spin on an old topic. Great job!
Although estimating will never be just "Estimate excellently", I liked your cherry-pick way of finding the best things from all different parts of the development world to get the best way for you to estimate your projects.
The whole set of tools you offered will help me be more strict about estimating (we all let down our guard one in a while, don't we?). Thanks for sharing.
Good, honest, hands-on guide to estimates.
Very informative talk! I was never really good at estimating, so the content in this talk will help me a lot. I look forward to implementing quite a few of Lorna's suggestions and ideas.
Great talk! Your presentation was very clear and easy to follow. I wish I could work on projects with you. My only regret is that I didn't get the army of project managers that I work with to watch this talk.
Due to bad timezone-calculation skills, I missed half an hour of the presentation :(
But the second half hour was a good one! I will be re-reading the slides for sure!
Thank you for your talk, it gave me good pointers!
