About this event

Too often, Jira projects fail not because of the tool, but because the setup didn’t match the team’s actual needs. Skipping proper requirements gathering leads to workflows that don’t fit, missing fields, or reporting gaps that only surface months later—causing frustration and costly rework.

In this webinar, you’ll learn a structured approach to requirements gathering that ensures Jira is designed around your team’s goals, processes, and reporting needs. We’ll cover the key conversations to have, how to uncover hidden requirements, and a repeatable checklist that will help you build Jira projects that scale.

What You’ll Learn

  • The essential questions to ask stakeholders before setting up Jira
  • How to uncover hidden needs around workflows, permissions, and reporting
  • Ways to balance flexibility with governance in your project design
  • A repeatable checklist you can use for every new Jira project
