Agility is supported by methodologies, processes and techniques but true organisational agility can only be achieved if it is supported by leadership behaviours that normalise, value and encourage the application of agile approaches.

Melanie will explain and provide examples of these leadership behaviours, discuss why they are so challenging to adopt for many in senior positions and how you can help encourage their adoption.

We know that agility is not a methodology or set of processes or techniques. Agility is the behaviours and attitudes that enable the ability to move quickly and easily.

They are supported by new ways of working, but these new approaches only work if the environment encourages and rewards there use.

Leaders are principal players in creating this environment. Leaders are not restricted to those with hierarchical power within their organisations. A leader is someone who others willingly follow.

To be an effective agile leader, there are seven behaviours that support each other, and taken together enable agile processes and techniques to flourish.

These behaviours are:

1. Imagining the future state
2. Flexing your vision
3. Identifying small steps
4. Living with uncertainty
5. Decision making
6. Seeking the input of others
7. Relinquishing control

If you are in any form of leadership position, this webinar will give you the chance to benchmark your own behaviour against agile excellence and to identify areas for improvement.

If you are a project/programme manager, PMO or Product Owner, this will give you lots of ideas of what discuss with your Sponsor.

To support your “managing upwards” objectives, I will provide you with examples of what actions to ask your senior leaders to focus on and why these are essential to an effective agile culture.

As project managers, we manage work that delivers outcomes and capabilities to the organization that were not previously available.

The project manager is expected to be able to identify all components of the organizations value stream and make sure that the project has work streams that address those needs.

Whether the methodology that is used is DevOps, Predictive, Agile, or Hybrid – there still is the need to the organization to adopt these outcomes and capabilities to realize the promised benefits of the initiative.

This requires managing an Organizational Change Workstream to prepare the organization for the change and to transfer responsibility to operations.

In this session  David Davis, (LinkedIn profile) & George Armstrong (LinkedIn profile) will explore those technical details.

They will also discuss a communication strategy, so all stakeholders are aware of the workstream and the value it adds to the project.

Learning Objectives:

1. The participant will be able to articulate the Change Management Workstream component of a project and the special considerations contained within
2. The participant will be able to identify the main components of customer adoption of a product/project deliverable including: A Change Assessment, A training Plan, and an Adoption Plan.,
3. The participant will be able to explain to critical stakeholders the measurements of adoption success and how understanding these criteria can drive the appropriate behavior for successful outcome adoption.

Do you know why DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion) training has become a front and center hot topic? According to the Center for Disease Control (the CDC), 1 in 4 Americans identifies as having at least one disability or impairment.

Just imagine – if one-fourth of your learners cannot access your content, the economic impact could be significant.

With today’s politically charged climate and “the Great Resignation,” DEI is a big focus. It is no longer a luxury or “nice to have” – it is a requirement. By creating a positive and inclusive environment, you can boost retention rates and productivity – and learning directly encompasses this.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed by WCAG and Section 508 compliance, you may be surprised to learn that there are strategies and tools making it easier throughout the ID process.
