Live Webinar July 12, 2011, 11:00 – 12:30 PM EDT

Presented by: Computer Aid Inc IT Metrics & Productivity Institute (Rep 2733)

Much of the focus on agile transitions is on the team. However, the business side of an organization and the managers that lead it are not particularly interested in the mechanisms of agile teams and processes. They want faster time to market, schedule flexibility, predictability, visibility, better quality, and useful metrics.

In this webinar, Alan Shalloway (Linkedin Profile) describes agile development from an executive’s point of view. Rather than focusing on the “how” of agile, he talks about the “why.” Alan highlights ways for you to communicate to your executive management how agile teams can enable what they are trying to accomplish.

SharePoint is the market leading platform for collaboration and information sharing, but it can also be extended and enhanced with templates for work and project management.

SharePoint templates can be built to manage work, individual projects or to manage across many projects.

Templates provide the flexibility to mimic the varying structure required on different types of projects. Templates are also a pragmatic way to easily promote reuse and the spread of common practice.
