In a bid to embrace agile trends, organizations are rushing to implement agile practices rather than adopting an agile mindset.

In this interactive session, Dr. Helen Uzamere (LinkedIn profile) DPS, PMI-ACP, PMP, ITIL, MCP, MCSE will elucidate the difference between “Being Agile” and implementing agile practices, such as Scrum, XP, Kanban and demonstrate why an agile mindset, not practices, drives successful projects.

This question often comes up: “I am a project manager and our company is moving to agile or Scrum, does that mean I will now become a Scrum Master?”

In response, The answer-er hesitates and then give the unwelcomed answer of “It depends.”

And it really does depend.

  1. The Scrum Master role is deep and wide.
  2. Scrum Masters need to support their teams while working with the rest of the people in their organizations to build awareness and enable greater agility.
  3. A Scrum Master’s job is not to manage a project or deliver status reports — duties that people associate with the role of a traditional project manager.
  4. As a matter of fact, Scrum Masters may not get involved in status reports at all.

In this webinar, Eric Naiburg, (LinkedIn profile) COO, Scrum.org, will discuss the potential move to an agile way of working, the role of the Scrum Master, and what that means for people currently in the role of Project Manager.

We did it! The deliverable (new system, process, product) is done. But no one is using it, and it is too difficult to support!

  • Realize the nature of change and describe how resistance manifests in people.
