Testing too often gets no respect-too little time, too few resources, and increasingly omission from projects. It may be hard to admit, but these all signal your testing process is perceived as failing to deliver needed value. The key to gaining the respect you crave is to manage your testing process proactively so it cost-effectively produces results that everyone recognizes as valuable.

Learn to:

• Identify your REAL testing process and why managing it matters
• Identify keys to improving the value your testing produces
• Make it work in Agile projects, even ones without “testers”

Presenter: Robin Goldsmith (LinkedIn profile) author of Discovering Real Business Requirements for Software Project Success,  advises & trains business and systems professional on risk-based Proactive Software Quality Assurance and Testing™, requirements, REAL ROI™, metrics, outsourcing, project and process management.Robin is a subject expert for TechTarget’s SearchSoftwareQuality.com and a subject expert/reviewer for the IIBA Business Analysis Body of Knowledge (BABOK v2).  Robin  writes the Unconventional Wisdom blog on TestHuddle.com and is publishing his next book shortly – Cut Creep—Put Business Back in Business Analysis to Discover REAL Business Requirements for Agile, ATDD, and Other Project Success.

An overwhelming majority of research and development (R&D) leaders believe a hybrid work model makes innovation more difficult. However, 75% of R&D leaders anticipate they will make permanent changes to allow more staff to work remotely compared to prepandemic levels.

Organizations must develop new muscles to drive intentional collaboration in order to unlock creativity and innovation. Furthermore, to overcome the challenges brought on by changing expectations at the macro and function level, as well as evolving employee preferences, organizations need to create a human-centric work model.

In this webinar Atul Dighe (LinkedIn profile) Gartner VP Advisory, will help R&D leaders navigate the great resignation/retirement by rethinking career development to move beyond the dual career ladder to career pathing 3.0.

Discussion Topics:

• Find out what leading R&D teams do to intentionally collaborate in the hybrid work world
• Learn why you need to create a human-centric work model
• Make needed changes to impact R&D team recruitment and retention over the next 5 years
