The concept of the Agile Project Manager is almost universally accepted, at least in IT projects; although there is no Agile Project Management Methodology.

Traditional approaches like PMBoK and PRINCE2 had always the capability to use techniques that are part of the Agile delivery: incremental and iterative development, early delivery of increments of the project, multi-functional teams, inspect and adapt, etc.

Most Agile frameworks, like Scrum, were created by and for software development and are challenged when it comes to complex projects where Risk Management, Stakeholder Management, Procurement, and Financial Management skills and knowledge are crucial for a successful delivery.

The role of Project Manager is as important as ever for the success of any initiative defined by scope, time, and budget – otherwise a project.

Agile may or may not be the best delivery approach, but if it is, how is an Agile project different ?

in this webinar Stelian Roman (LinkedIn profile) will answer this question using real life examples from IT and Business projects.

The Agile Parenting Manifesto

Share

Live Webinar April 3rd, 2019 2:00 pm – 3:00 pm EDT
Activity Type: Education – Course or Training  1 Hour  1 PDU
Provider: Fissure Corporation (Rep 1026) Branded SPL

When the Agile Manifest was written in 2001, it created a movement back to the core values and principles that are as much common sense as they are practical.

Over time, Agile has become accepted and even preferred, especially for projects where there is a high degree of uncertainty.

There is no project longer or more uncertain than raising children. Yet the application of common sense to our role as parents often gets as lost in parenting as it does in project management, and we end up with equally dysfunctional behaviors and undesirable results.

In 2006 Geof published
The Agile Parenting Manifesto to call attention to the core values and principles necessary to raise and develop children in an uncertain world.

Mirroring the structure of the Agile Manifesto, it purports five values and 13 principles for parenting.

In this presentation we will discuss application of these values and principles to parenting and project management through examples and storytelling from my own experience and those shared with me by family and friends over the course of the past 30 years.

This presentation is excellent for project managers looking to encourage behavior change on their projects!

Presenter: Geof Lory PMP ACP CSM (LinkedIn profile) is a SPL instructor, SPL Board member, project manager, consultant, trainer and writer. With 30+ years of practical experience, Geof integrates the unique aspects of software development and infrastructure deployment projects into both Agile and traditional project management disciplines. He is an engaging speaker and trainer and the Product Owner for the SPL PM and Agile/Scrum Simulations and is certified to deliver various other team, leadership and project management curricula.
