Goal Statement

From OpenAgile Wiki

Goal Statement: the reason we are doing an effort. This is the idea that guides the overall work being done with OpenAgile. A goal statement may be in the form of a traditional Project Charter, it may be a simple, catchy on-liner, it may be defined with metrics, or in any way that allows us to understand why we are working and where we need to go to deliver value. It is expected that our Cycle length is chosen so that at least five will be required to accomplish the goal (although it may be many more than that). The Goal Statement therefore gives us insight into the length of our Cycles although it may not be the only factor considered.
