(4) identifying opportunities to optimize flow.

Is Your Agile Management Solution Value Stream Management Ready?

Digital transformations just won't happen without a good project management office (PMO). So, the pressure is on in 2023! With major changes in the workplace, companies will now focus more on the employees. Can the PMO deliver? To optimize ROI, there's pressure to switch from project to product management. Can the PMO adjust? And funding continues to change, as plans evolve – again and again. Can the PMO pivot? Come hear Lynda from The Boeing Company and Morten from the Federal Reserve System as they share their thoughts on these key questions and important challenges many organizations face for a successful 2023.

Join us as Broadcom's CTO, Laureen Knudsen, and David Gehringer from Dimensional Research present new research on real-world VSM benefits and how VSM can power digital transformation in 2023.

Journey to Strategic Portfolio Management (SPM) Clarity: Customer Panel

Big Room Planning (BRP), sometimes referred to as PI Planning, is a two-day release train planning event. The purpose of the event is a collaborative planning process resulting in a committed roadmap for the Planning Increment (PI). At Rally, our PIs are fiscal quarters, organized into six or seven two-week sprints, with all teams on the same sprint cadence. The final sprint of the quarter is really two, one-week sprints; one for Hackathon, and one for the Big Room Planning event.

This webinar will walk you through answering these release planning preparation questions:
1.  Will our team structure change?
2.  Are there any known upcoming disruptions? 
3.  How much capacity do we have for the upcoming release?
4.  During the past release, were we able to make changes to the plan when new, important information emerged?  Did we allow for change?  Were we consumed with change?
5.  How much time have we historically spent on defects?  During this time, has our defect debt improved or declined?
6.  What is our investment strategy for the upcoming release?
  
Heather Kanser, Data Visualization and Modeling Expert and Todd Galloway, Rally’s Release Train Engineer, will identify their tip and share best practices for running big room planning meetings and the data they bring from Rally to the table to achieve the highest results.

3 Reasons To Attend:
1. Improve planning, tracking and forecasting by leveraging analytics metrics
2. Gain best practices from how Rally manages software releases
3. Become empowered to identify actions for continuous improvement

Using Data to Improve & Prepare for Big Room Planning

Hindrance or help? Due to its mission-critical role, the project management office (PMO) is often walled off, restricting access to business teams with great ideas for new and improved products and value streams. As a result, big initiatives begin to circumvent the PMO, leaving it outside the decision-making process. But there’s a solution. In this webinar, we’ll explore how Clarity and Design Thinking – a modern problem-solving approach to improving products – helped other companies breathe new life into their enterprise investments. Join us to see how Broadcom can help with your digital transformation.

Take Charge of Business Transformation with Clarity and Design Thinking

Objectives and Key Results (OKRs) are all about focusing organizations on the most important items that should be completed in the near future to meet their key goals (and from that, show the value of that work). 

ValueOps from Broadcom is the first value stream management (VSM) platform to
support the use of OKRs throughout the entire planning and delivery lifecycle. It empowers both
business and engineering leaders to collaboratively define OKRs so they can be understood and
measured at every stage with a common methodology and value orientation.

PPM: Connecting Strategy to Results

Many organizations today are focused on making the annual planning process more strategic. There is an increased understanding that the portfolio of projects has to be managed against organizational goals and objectives. That can mean perfectly good projects must stop or change because they no longer align with what the organization needs to achieve. Simultaneously, organizations are driving themselves to become more flexible and adaptable, further driving change into projects. Are these two concepts creating a harmony among executives and execution teams, or are they causing confusion and challenges?  

The recent research report Top Down Planning and Bottom Up Execution – Harmony or Discord? reveals some surprising results. Join the author of the report, Andy Jordan, as he discusses the findings and offers recommendations to ensure your projects stay aligned with strategic objectives. Topics will include:

• Open communication around planning
• Importance of a formal portfolio
• Frequency of planning cycles
• The role of Agile in planning
• Importance of PPM maturity level

David Werner from CA Technologies will join Andy for the live presentation and Q&A from the audience. All attendees will receive a complimentary copy of the report.
