The Agile PMO: Value-Driven Agile Project Management Conclusive research findings show that approximately 50% of PMOs are disbanded in two years. Yet, we repeat the same mistakes in our PMO implementations wasting money, resources and most important wasting time. In this presentation we focus on the value driven PMO as an integrator, enabler, differentiator, and change agent in business, development and the organization in general. We analyze the essential model for PMO value enablement which answers: • What is the strategic role of the value driven PMO in business • How to ensure effective streamlined delivery • How to effectively select and prioritize opportunities • How to manage resource allocation Key take away: a PMO must deliver value to the organization constantly. Value isn't templates, tools and processes. Rather, it is the ability to finish the right projects faster! This and other IIL Learning in Minutes presentations qualify for PDUs. Some titles, such as Agile-related topics may qualify for other continuing education credits such as SEUs, or CEUs. Each professional development activity yields one PDU for one hour spent engaged in the activity. Some limitations apply and can be found in the Ways to Earn PDUs section that discusses PDU activities and associated policies. Fractions of PDUs may also be reported. The smallest increment of a PDU that can be reported is 0.25. This means that if you spent 15 minutes participating in a qualifying PDU activity, you may report 0.25 PDU. If you spend 30 minutes in a qualifying PDU activity, you may report 0.50 PDU.

Shifting Left Until We Shift Right - Does It Make Sense to Test in Production? Pablo Picasso famously said to learn the rules like a pro, so you can break them like an artist.' For over 20 years, the principles of agile and lean software development have been reshaping our industry with incontrovertible positive impact. However, as is so often the case with guiding principles, there are cases where the original intent has been lost and replaced by simplified patterns that sometimes prevent us from making the right decisions. In this talk, CircleCI CTO Rob Zuber will look at the guiding principles and original intent of agile practices to illustrate that the next frontier of testing in production may seem counterintuitive on the surface but, when done well, is a natural evolution of agile. Attendees will: Develop a better understanding of the principles that led to specific practices in agile development Recognize how advancement beyond planning work, such as devops and CI/CD evolved from these principles Make decisions about where and how to apply these practices in their own work Apply scenario planning to minimize cost and risk while maximizing value delivery in their own business

Kanban: What is it and How Can I Implement it? Are you trying to implement Agile Scrum and it is just not a good fit? Is your team too small to make Scrum work? Is your team's work not conducive to incremental releases such as IT trouble tickets or customer support services?

In this dynamic presentation. we will not only define Kanban and discuss the associated 6 practices. but we will also share how to implement Kanban.

Compass for Agility - Leveraging Agility for Business Problem-Solving Join Leila Rao as she introduces the Compass for Agility. This 90-day iterative approach is a pragmatic and personalized method, enabling organizations to build the capacity and culture for responding to challenges and opportunities. This provides a structure for organizations to explore what'ss working and what isnTt in their ecosystem to successfully and sustainably build the capability for continuous learning and improvement. The Compass helps with addressing "wicked" business problems set apart by one key variation: agile is the how, not the "why". Enhancing business agility is a fortunate by-product of directly resolving pain points because agile serves as the means, not the end. Empower your organization to orient itself by its unique needs and values so that you can continually create customized maps as you chart your own journey in volatile and uncertain terrains.
