Agile recognizes that creating value in today’s environment means adapting not just between projects but within projects.While Agile evolved mostly in software development environments and is often viewed as a software only approach, the need to adapt to create value exists just as strongly in non-software environments.Agile suggests an array of practices consistent with key principles and core values, but it can be difficult to combine the right set of practices to ensure success and a positive start down the Agile path.

This presentation demonstrates specific practices for applying Agile concepts to all sorts of projects. It startes by reviewing the Agile concepts and then provide examples of Agile practices (and tools) applied to both software and non software projects. It will also describe how this particular set of Agile practices (called Commitment-based Project Management – CBPM) evolved at Intel Corp. in the mid-1990’s.

This webinar gives attendees a chance to:

  • Learn what it means to be ‘Agile’
  • Understand how to apply Agile concepts to all sorts of projects
  • Learn the benefits of a set of proven Agile practices (sometimes callCBPM) and how to learn more about them
