For program management success, you must embrace and exploit changes.

Since most people resist change, even if the changes lead to increased benefits, you must establish a program environment conductive to change. An adaptive approach is required.

This presentation, with some case study examples, focuses on some guidelines for success.

• Interpersonal Skills for Portfolio, Program, and Project Managers

To an untrained eye, an Agile Team Room can look like chaos, however, to the trained eye, an Agile Team Room is a integrated set of Information Radiators that transparently communicate project details, insulate the team from distractions, and support an environment for continuous collaboration.

If you attended last months web seminar, “Options for Illustrating & Documenting the Five Levels of Planning,” then you got exposure to the different types of information radiators that can be used to communicate details about the scope of work an Agile Team has taken on.

While Leslie Morse (LinkedIn profile) will not cover the details of any specific information radiator during this one-hour seminar, she will reference many types of information radiators and walk through various team room layouts that are conducive for building high performing Agile Teams.

If you choose to register and attend this session you’ll leave with a list of Team Room attributes that are classified into must-haves, satisfiers, & delighters as well as understand the pros and cons of an Agile Team Room approach.

Organization structures in most companies today make resource management a daunting task. A lack of visibility into resource allocation and capacity, consistent prioritization and validation of actual work versus planned, contribute to this challenge.

Over 50% of IT organizations surveyed use their “best guess” when determining what capacity IT has to perform projects in a given period.

This webinar presents the fundamentals for creating and implementing a Resource Management Model using people, process and technology. A Resource Management Model is a set of processes that provide visibility, decision support and structure to effectively manage people in an organization.

Allocating resources based on availability and fit, supported by standard processes, will improve the success and predictability of projects across your organization.

COO’s, CIOs, Department VPs and Managers, PMs, Resource Managers
