Taming the Project Pachyderm: Introducing the Elephant Carpaccio Method!

Have you ever stared down a project that felt more like a colossal elephant than a sleek racehorse? We've all been there. But fear not, intrepid project managers and ambitious teams! This Miro template offers a delicious solution – the Elephant Carpaccio Method.

This isn't your average project slicing technique. We're talking about breaking down that mammoth project into thin, delectable slices, each packed with all the necessary ingredients (think functionalities, design elements, development tasks) for a satisfying – and achievable – course of action.

Who's it for?

  • Project managers wrangling unruly beasts of projects.

  • Agile teams seeking bite-sized wins.

  • Anyone who wants to avoid project indigestion!

How it works:

This handy Miro template guides you through the process of vertically slicing your project. You'll define your overall goal, then methodically carve it into thin, yet vertically integrated slices. Each slice will encompass all the horizontal components needed for a complete, deliverable chunk of functionality.

Benefits? You bet!

  • Enhanced Clarity: Gain a clear understanding of the project's overall flow and dependencies.

  • Improved Focus: Tackle manageable tasks, boosting team morale and reducing overwhelm.

  • Faster Delivery: Celebrate milestones with frequent releases of functional slices.

  • Reduced Risk: Identify and address potential issues early on, for a smoother overall project journey.

So, ditch the project panic and embrace the power of the Elephant Carpaccio Method! With this template, you'll be savoring project success, one delicious slice at a time.

With sincere thanks and a massive hat tip to Alistair Cockburn!

G'day, I'm Paul from the country where it's always tomorrow. You'd know it as Australia. I'm an Workshop Designer, Facilitator, Trainer and Coach, helping teams think differently to solve problems. I'm also a big believer in making work fun - one great way of doing that is by mixing up the normal drudgery of meetings. The templates I create here can be used to bring alignment and collaboration, but in fun ways using games, themes, movies, music. If you think it, you can do it.
