Schedule:

Today’s project leaders need to be comfortable using a variety of value delivery methods. According to customer feedback, practitioners need to merge the predictive and adaptive methods and tailor their ways of working to fit the needs of the project and the environment.

Learning Agile or Scrum without the necessary work context is ineffective; and without a platform to practice and apply them on an ongoing basis is futile. This workshop provides both context and practice across all aspects of the value delivery system including waterfall, hybrid, and Agile approaches. It also provides options that span the value delivery spectrum for developing scope, estimating durations, managing schedules, and tracking progress. The workshop also covers how to integrate iterations and releases into a high-level predictive schedule.

The project team is the heart of the project. This workshop explains various team roles along with key leadership skills such as emotional intelligence and decision making. Key tenets of Agile practices, such as servant leadership and self-managing teams are explored along with the different types of meetings, such as daily stand-ups, iteration planning and demonstrations.

Those who attend will be better prepared to situationally apply agile and hybrid concepts. In addition, this course provides the structure for critical thinking to occur: to know and understand when to apply a predictive approach, when to apply an adaptive approach and when and how to combine them in a tailored and customized hybrid approach that meets the needs and demands of the project and the organization.

The learning experience design is rooted in real world perspectives, leveraging team exercises based on a comprehensive case study.
