The goal of Agile teams is to continuously deliver high-value outcomes—as quickly as possible.
To achieve this, these teams focus on skills, not titles or traditional role delineations.
So what does that mean for the experienced project manager, product manager, or business analyst?
Where do their planning and analysis skills fit into Agile’s fierce focus on frequent delivery?
Drawing on her insights from coaching Agile teams, Mary addresses these questions and outlines the dynamic relationships between agile work, disciplines, and skills.

It has been well over a decade since Agile practices were introduced and phenomenal results have been realized by organizations putting this approach into use.
Many teams find that although challenging, the initial implementation of an Agile approach can be done relatively quickly and the associated benefits are realized just as soon.
It is after the initial transition that teams begin to wonder about things not so simple, such as how to scale Agile, how to effectively run an Agile project in a large organization with distributed teams, and how to ensure continuous improvement in the approach long after the initial implementation.
This hour long web seminar explores the advanced Agile topics that help teams move past the very common Agile plateau that teams often experience.
