Individual employees are permitted to be individuals and plan their work
as individuals. Individuals are only asked to plan their work within a limited
tasking horizon. Employees track their progress using verbs that are designed to
capture the reasons behind positive and negative predictive ability. Verbs are
analyzed and expected predictive error, also know as risk, is calculated. Once
verbs are captured they can be analyzed for ways to improve predictive ability.
In addition, the risk can be factored into the initial planning stage so as to
include an expected predictive error in the initial planning. The cost, effort,
churn and risk values of projects are then illustrated in a comparison form with
historical limitations from past similar projects.
