In proper agile you don't have end goal and date set, however management needs end goal and a date.
Doesn't a definition of done count as a goal?
That's just how you know when you've finished
How is that different from a goal?
Not being argumentative. Just seeing if I'm missing something.
In my experience DoD is too pithy to be a goal. DoD is things like all code checked in, all PBIs done. Sure you're trying to get your code finished, but your goal is more like add this functionality to the system rather than check in the code and close the PBIs
I see. So dod could be the same across multiple goals.
