To paraphrase a well-known cliché, either you have been breached or you will be breached. You might not be able to prevent infiltration by malicious intent, but you can recognize abnormal versus normal and react quickly enough to implement your action plan.
• How can proactive baselining improve response time to abnormal activity?
• Practical insights for building on process and empowering your team
• Typical scenarios
• Is automation the answer?
• For those without a plan for a breach, this is an excellent starting point with actionable insights.
• For those with a plan, is it executable immediately after a breach? Many orgs can’t pivot quickly, and in this session additional recommendations can help with fine-tuning. It is also an excellent reference and validation.
Join us as we take a closer look at the value of proactive baselining, featuring cybersecurity expert Erik Goldoff. Bring your questions and prepare for a lively Q&A.

Oftentimes, agile is seen as “too unstructured” to succeed in highly-regulated environments. However, there is still a need to be able to create a resilient organization that can sense and respond to challenges and opportunities in the marketplace. As we saw in 2020, some organizations were able to weather the disruption and innovate while others fell away. How did the successful ones manage to not get bogged down in bureaucracy, red tape, regulation and stagnation often found at companies in highly-regulated environments?
Our panelists will discuss how it is possible for even the most regulated companies to still see benefits from “going agile” – and how the right approach might even protect them from high-impact new regulations disrupting the flow of business, missed opportunities and more.
We recommend this webinar for anyone that works in highly-regulated environments such as healthcare, banking or other environments who is interested in learning how they can become more resilient.

How do organizations transform from “status quo” to “status WOW!”? Businesses that thrive in a digital age build innovative solutions and systems, and especially during unprecedented operating conditions. Thriving depends on digital transformations that can bridge the strategy and execution gap, and why the process, people, culture and technology at the heart of delivering value - ValueOps - is so crucial.
• Value as the ultimate measure of success – and how to define it
• Driving Agility at Scale with adoption at program, portfolio and enterprise levels
• Improving collaboration between business and IT, strengthening alignment, and leveraging data
• Communicating value across the organization
ValueOps is where work enters an organization; in this webinar, explore where to find and respond to opportunities that enable you to solve problems faster, act on data in meaningful ways, avoid ‘project thinking’, and leverage critical capabilities within the context of a BizOps framework.

The BizOps Manifesto outlines 12 guiding principles to help organizations achieve business outcomes through a framework that celebrates trust, confidence and collaboration. Many agilists will recognize the influence from the Agile Manifesto, which was signed nearly 20 years ago and used as the guiding principles for those who practice the various forms and frameworks of agility.
• So how does the BizOps Manifesto impact Agile?
• Is there a place for Agile in BizOps – or is it just focused on products?
• Is it meant to replace – or to supplement the Agile Manifesto?
Join us on January 19th when we bring together authors and collaborators of the BizOps Manifesto and agile leaders to discuss the impacts and opportunities.

In 2001, the 68 words of the Agile manifesto started changing our worlds. 20 years later, BizOps heralds yet another shift as organizations are under more pressure than ever to achieve successful and sustainable digital transformations. In this webinar, we examine the critical capabilities necessary to connect technology to outcomes, leveraging the values and principles of the BizOps manifesto.
• How can you make pressure work to your advantage?
• Where does the flow of value really begin?
• Necessary shifts for transforming disruption into opportunity, regardless of the challenge
• How do the values and principles of the BizOps manifesto inform and influence digital transformation?
Transformation is no longer a choice; it is an imperative. Architecting a solid transformation agenda that delivers value, executable regardless of disruption, is explored in this webinar.

OKRs (Objectives and Key Results) are just OK if used for topics that are known: goal setting, success metrics, status updates. OKRs become great when used for managing the unknown: strategy tied to execution, alignment around value, and feedback on a trajectory.
Applied correctly, OKRs can help you flesh out the biggest problem areas in your organization so you can start to monitor and measure progress. Applied incorrectly, OKRs will bring no additional value to your organization than your old goal-setting methods.
In this session, we will share how we have used a simple 3-question template to help some of the largest companies in the world establish great OKRs using Unknown Management, or highlighting and bringing to focus the root causes for why you aren't meeting your goals. Some examples of real customer's Unknowns are: Why do we keep working on things that do not fulfill our strategies? Why do we have so many delays in getting the right things done? How do we know we are building the right stuff? Why do we miss targets?
• Identify the key areas of focus where OKRs can provide the most value
• Understand how the unknowns in your organization impact success (and why OKRs can help)
• Learn to use a 3-question template to define great OKRs

Durante un tiempo, la disciplina de las pruebas se consideró una tarea menos importante, necesaria solo para cumplir con los requisitos de los programas de certificación de calidad, realizados por un equipo centralizado de recursos no calificados, visto como el área que encuentra defectos, retrasos en las entregas y encarece los proyectos. Hoy en día, con los conceptos Shift Left, User Experience, Test Development Engineers, Agile y DevOps saliendo a primer plano, las pruebas ya no están relegadas a un equipo centralizado y asumen un papel clave.
¿Qué llevó a las empresas a cambiar su forma de pensar? ¿Cómo se ha manejado la disciplina de las pruebas en su empresa?

For a time, the discipline of testing was considered a less important task, necessary only to meet the requirements of quality certification programs, conducted by a centralized team of unskilled resources, seen as the area that finds defects, delays in deliveries and makes projects more expensive. Today, with the concepts of Shift Left, User Experience, Test Development Engineers, Agile and DevOps coming to the fore, testing is no longer relegated to a centralized team and assumes a key role.
What led companies to change their thinking? How has the discipline of testing been handled in your company?

Este webinar puede literalmente transformar la vida de las personas con escenarios reales y nuevas propuestas que traen inspiración a la nueva normalidad.
En este seminario web grabado, exploramos cómo los OKR han ayudado a las empresas a proporcionar una dirección y alineación estratégicas / tácticas y cómo Clarity PPM puede ayudar a dar vida a esa visión.
How can you bridge the chasm of disparity between IT and business stakeholders, for meaningful and lasting digital transformations? Pierre Viljoen discusses how BizOps presents opportunities to use technology to narrow the chasm of disparity.

Explore how enabling the two sides to exchange in-context, actionable data-as-information in near real-time can fuel transformation in rapid - and unexpected - ways.
The transformation agenda is no longer a choice but an immediate imperative. But why do so many transformation efforts fail - and, more importantly, what can be done to achieve sustainable transformations? Learn how BizOps can help organizations unlock value and succeed with digital transformation initiatives by bringing together critical capabilities into a framework for connecting technology capability and business outcomes.
