Started my internship and they want to start using JIRA, never touched it, and now i feel confident with it! extremely knowledgeable about it, thank you.
Honestly, this video has taught me more project management than my entire project management course. LOVED the straight forward explanation!
correction: story points aren't how important the task is to complete. Instead they are units of measure for expressing an estimate of the overall effort required to complete that task. Notably, the Team assigns the points and not the PM! hope this helps
It might also be helpful to understand the hierarchy of "issues" Epic > Feature > User story > Task Hope this helps!
This is great. I'm a coordinator for a non-project organization and want to get into project management. Hearing about different software, agile, scrum, etc can be intimidating but this video helps put some things into perspective. Can't wait to learn more!
Thanks for the vid! I'm applying for a position with a company that uses Jira, so this will give me an edge in my interview.
This guy does an excellent job for introductory information to JIRA. I spent the better pat of the day trying to figure out the lay of the land in JIRA compared to DevOps and was having more trouble than necessary until I came across this video by Stewart Gauld. I highly recommend watching this from start to end. Looking forward to a next level video from him as well. Thanks......... Great job Stewart!!!
I used Jira over six years ago and needed a refresher. This tutorial was perfect for that. Great job hitting the key points to getting started! As a Certified Scrum Master, I felt compelled to point out that there really isn't a "hierarchy" of roles in Scrum - in that no one role is "higher" than another. All roles work together as an egalitarian team.
Hello, thank you so much for this! I have worked with JIRA for over 3 years and now I am ready to dive back in and this was so informative. Thanks again
Hi Stewart, I was at lost as I worked as Project Manager for 3 years already but my former company doesn't want to use modern project management tools. Been having a hard time finding work as they all require JIRA mostly, thank you for this wonderful, short and very clear explanation. will be having fun exploring JIRA based from your fundamentals, you made my day brother! keep it up!!!
seriously Thanks for this. I was trying to learn this during a work presentation and was so lost with they way they explained it. Once again...YOUTUBE to the rescue. :)
Very Hard to find out of these type of videos on Youtube, I appreciate you and your work. Definitely you are a hardcore trainer. Thank you from an 🇮🇳Indian.
correction: the Product Owner isn't the Project manager. Instead, the Scrum master is essentially the Project manager (in Scrum) or team facilitator.. and is there to "facilitate" and not direct or manage! as agile teams are self-empowered! Hope this helps!
Amazing... dont forget to correct what story points are.
What a great and practical video Stewart, yet listening about Scrum roles (aka accountabilities) there seem to be some inaccuracies which might confuse viewers and give them a wrong perception of Scrum concepts (eg. there is no hierarchy in Scrum). Given the video topic it might be not a big deal but at the same time proper statements that correspond the Scrum Guide could be of an additional help to those who listen :) B.R!
I've been using ADO for a few years and needed an overview of Jira that my new client uses. This is super clear and detailed enough to give me exactly what I needed. Thanks Stewart (ADO uses the term Item Type instead of Issue - which as a PM is much better as who wants lots of Issues on the project :) )
Thank you Stewart! This is one of the best complete overviews I've seen in Jira. We will be sharing with our clients.
And here I go... Now I can claim that I know JIRA. Really helpful to know the basics of JIRA and to kickstart with it :)
WOW! the best tutorial video on JIRA! Hats off to you :)
