A topsy-turvy world requires thinking that challenges the status quo and seeks smarter ways of deploying the well-known portfolio management mantra of ‘doing the right things’.

The world’s economies will struggle to recover from the global COVID pandemic, meaning organisations of all sizes will need to focus on well considered and planned activity and the selection of initiatives that provide the most business value towards business objectives and ultimately strategic goals.

The success of any project depends on how requirements are being managed, and how changes are being controlled through out the project.

When things get hectic and the schedule slips, it becomes crucial to get back to the customer as soon as possible with some adjustments to functionality being delivered.

In fact, it is even more crucial to avoid that schedule slippage in the first place. Most importantly, it is critical to any project manager or QA manager to provide accurate estimates for each feature to be delivered, with accurate time frame when it will be delivered.

Agile projects also must have better control over increments to make sure specific functionality is delivered at the right time.

In this presentation, Magdy will show how Feature-Based Project Management™ adopted by Rommana ALM sets a new standard for managing software projects.

Some of the features are:

  • Allocating and managing project resources, roles, responsibilities and access rights.
  • Creating and managing project tasks for both development and testing on the project level, as well as on the requirement level.
  • Creating and maintaining action item lists for both development and testing effort.
  • Managing risks throughout the project for both development and testing on the project level, as well as on the requirement level.
  • Creating and maintaining project timeline for all project tasks for both development and testing.
  • Creating and maintaining cost and time estimates for both development and testing tasks, either on the projects level or the requirement level. Managing product release and features included in each release.

Presenter: Dr. Magdy Hanna PhD (LinkedIn profile) is a recognized educator, speaker and consultant in several areas of software engineering. His highly rated seminars in various topics over the last thirty-five years have spanned various aspects and capacities of software projects and processes.

There are so many practices in the workplace that hinder diversity and inclusion. These practices which sometimes come off seemingly subtle make an evident difference in the performance of the project team.

It is important that Project Practitioners create an environment that promotes diversity and inclusion among the project team because diversity in the workplace has come to stay.

Regardless of culture, race and gender, the universal need is for everyone to feel respected, heard, recognized and most importantly valued.

Fostering an environment where these emotions are embedded into the team development strategy will make team members feel included despite varying cultural backgrounds and personalities.
