Hi [[ session.user.profile.firstName ]]

The Agile Enterprise is not a Myth…it's a Reality

Many companies experimenting with agile development methods in their engineering and IT groups are having only mixed success.

Unless you’re implementing agile both upstream (through your portfolio) and downstream (through testing and operations,) you’re not harnessing agile’s full power through Digital Transformation. Being faster to market doesn’t help your bottom line if you deliver the wrong things, and failing to get the right things into production fast means you’re leaving money on the table.

Join this web seminar to gain insight into the benefits of a digital transformation. You’ll discover a strategic, collaborative approach to channel the power of agile and deliver more value to your customers.

You'll learn how to:
Deliver value quickly in small increments across work streams
Provide visibility into strategic initiatives that inform the process, from planning through delivery
Support continuous delivery with automation

PPM & Agile: Redefining Planning & Execution

  • 3 Challenges of Distributed Agile Retrospectives & How to Solve Them Jul 19 2018 5:00 pm UTC 60 mins
    Michael Ball-Marian, Agile Expert at CA Technologies
    Of all the Agile practices, none is more foundational than the inspect & adapt cycle of the retrospective. Even if you struggle with every other aspect of Agile, if you consistently engage in productive retrospectives, you will get better.

    Industry surveys and studies suggest that 80% or more of Agile organizations have at least some distributed teams. Most of the traditional retrospective methods assume that all team members are co-located.

    Running effective retrospectives for distributed teams presents unique challenges, but also, potentially, some great advantages. In this webinar, Agile coach and Instant Agenda co-founder Michael Ball-Marian will discuss the three greatest challenges to running distributed Agile retrospectives and how to solve them. Michael will share a variety of tips and techniques that you can use in any retrospective, co-located or distributed. Finally, he’ll present a few ways in which a distributed retrospective can actually be better than a co-located one.

    -The importance of a cohesive view of all work regardless of type
    -The role of key leadership, finance and PMO roles in making a realistic plan

  • Certain Uncertainty Recorded: May 17 2018 48 mins
    Evan Leybourn, Founder and CEO, Business Agility Institute
    The world is changing more rapidly than ever before and organizations of every size are struggling to remain relevant in the eyes of their customers. The simple fact that the average lifespan of a company has decreased by more than 50 years in the last century demonstrates that not all organizations are prepared for this new reality. It is only high-performing, adaptable and agile organizations that will leverage, lead and thrive in this ambiguous and unpredictable market. We call this business agility.

    The problem with a statement like that is that there is no common definition of what business agility means. And that’s actually a good thing. In a dynamic and changing market trying to lock it down will defeat the very advantage it brings. Instead, I want you to start thinking of business agility as the common thread. An adaptable and sustainable narrative that binds & guides, rather than directs, us into the uncertain future.
    This session will cover the state of business agility around the world. We’ll look at the Domains of Business Agility, interspersed with case studies from 4 multinational organizations in both the banking and utilities sector.
     
    In this session you will learn:
    • Domains of business agility
    • How to work with Finance and HR to increase agility in your current organization
    • How Business Agility is being adopted by organizations around the world

    Doug Page, Senior Advisor on Strategy, Portfolio and Project Management, CA Technologies
    An accessible mobile internet and the app economy changed the way we work over the last decade.

We will look at the potential pros and cons of how fast emerging technologies create disruption and how to get ahead of it.

  • Fostering Innovation with Lean Startup and SAFe Recorded: May 17 2018 46 mins
    Dean Leffingwell, Cofounder and Chief Methodologist, Scaled Agile, Inc.
    The marketplace is changing so quickly that we need a paradigm shift in how we enable innovation in the large enterprise. When an innovation culture is relegated exclusively to the startup, our biggest brands—those who employ most of the people and drive most of the world's economy—are at risk for their very survival. And yet, sometimes it seems that the larger and more successful the company, the more difficult it is to innovate. 
Fortunately, Lean and Agile development gives us many of the tools we need to apply that momentum to new innovations, and to do so at enterprise scale. And now, the Scaled Agile Framework® (SAFe®) and other industry trends bring new mindsets and thinking to bear on this challenge.

    In this session, Dean Leffingwell will illustrate how seemingly disparate practices—like Agile, scaled Agile, Lean Startup, Lean UX, DevOps, and Continuous Delivery—need not be separate initiatives, but rather a continuum that helps enterprises delivery more innovative solutions at a velocity they could only imagine before. From Minimum Viable Product to Minimum Marketable Feature, to the-smallest-package-that-can-be efficiently-released-into-production, Dean will discuss how reducing batch size enables fast feedback, and is the one elemental practice that binds them all.

  • How to Keep Robbie the Robot from Taking Your Job Recorded: May 17 2018 42 mins
    Donna Fitzgerald, NimblePM, Inc.
    There are three things that are certain about the future:

    1) IT has embraced Scrum/Agile as the primary approach to software development
    2) AI will impact all jobs that have significant reporting and process compliance functions
    3) Creative human beings, who can help other human beings get something done, will never be out of a job.

    The good news is that while everyone can learn and practice basic project management skills (we can all cook a Thanksgiving Day dinner) being a successful specialist in helping people get work done, under conditions of uncertainty, with tight time, frames and limited budgets is an innate talent. Join us as we discuss how today’s PMs can begin showcasing the skills that innately equip them for contributing to the digital future.
