Deliver Projects On Time, Every Time!
(Applying PMBOK^® Guide to Agile Software Development)

Why Should You Attend?

How to better balance your time: You’ll learn how to better balance your time among three categories: planning, process, and people. By examining how you spend your time, you’ll learn how to become more effective at managing your time for better team efficiency and performance. As a case in point, we’ll go through an exercise that surprisingly shows why you’re failing at tackling too many concurrent tasks.

Motivate your team to support your company vision: You can satisfy customer and market needs by learning how to consistently motivate your project team to support the company vision and the mission that supports it. The approaches you’ll learn will strengthen the bond between the customer and your team.

Successfully transition your team to become agile and still deliver work on time: That transition from traditional software development to a more agile, customer-centric is tougher than you think. We’ll examine projects that haven’t gone well through that transition and you’ll learn from practical experience how to transition your team to get to an “agile” mindset.

Learn how to communicate: Let’s face it, most of us technical folks aren’t good at communicating to anyone (especially to humans). You’ll learn how to effortlessly improve your style and content of communication to the team, your customer, and especially to the non-technical type.

How to realistically apply the PMBOK^® Guide to your process: Although the PMBOK^® Guide should be the bible to run a project, it oftentimes is far too bureaucratic and out of touch. However, you’ll learn some “incredible gems” (best practices) that are time tested and will help you minimize project risks.
