Estimate Tasks process

During this process, the Scrum Core Team convenes in a Task Estimation Workshop to determine the effort needed to complete each item in the Task List.

Key Points

  • Held as a focused Task Estimation Workshop with the Scrum Core Team.
  • Produces effort estimates for every task in the Task List, along with assumptions.
  • Common techniques include planning poker, ideal hours, relative sizing, and expert judgment.
  • Results help with sprint planning, capacity alignment, and tracking progress.

Example

A Scrum team decomposes a user story into tasks such as design, API changes, UI updates, and tests. In a workshop, they use planning poker to estimate each task in ideal hours (e.g., 6h, 12h, 4h, 8h) and note assumptions like code reuse and available test data.

AI for Project Managers — Build Plans Faster, Lead Better

Turn messy inputs into structured project plans in minutes. If you are a project manager tired of spending hours on documentation, this course shows you how to use AI to work faster while staying fully in control.

This is not a generic AI course. You will learn how to use AI as a practical co-pilot to build real project artifacts—charters, WBS, schedules, risk registers, and executive reports—using structured, reliable prompt frameworks.

You will also learn how to keep your project aligned across scope, schedule, cost, and risk, and how to interpret performance data like Earned Value Management to support better decisions and communication.

Everything is designed for immediate use. You get ready-to-use prompt templates and workflows you can apply right away in your projects. Watch the video to see how it works and start building your first AI-supported project plan.
