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

Real-World Use Cases for AI In this session, we'll look at the impact of several recent developments in Artificial Intelligence (AI) including the areas of computer vision, language understanding, and reinforcement learning on our ability to more effectively carry out projects. We'll also dive into real-world use cases where these breakthroughs are being applied to improve our ability to get things done through better communication and collaboration, information processing, and decision making. 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.

Reinventing Project Management Now! Projects are taking up a more and more prominent role within organizations and the economy as a whole. Simultaneously, the skill set demanded of project management professionals is changing, too. Recently, Gartner claimed that 80% of today's project management tasks will be eliminated by 2030 as Artificial Intelligence takes over. This statistic alone is an indicator that the project management profession will undergo profound changes in the next decade, if not earlier, and we should see this as a call for action to redefine the future of our profession. This session, founded upon some of the latest research conducted in collaboration with HBR, will explore the challenges that the project management profession is facing both from a methodological point of view, as well as the disruptions that are already impacting us, such as AI, robots, and blockchain. If we act now, project management will become one of the most sought-after competencies by organizations in the new world. Understand the disruption that the project management profession is about to face Learn new and simpler project management concepts that will help us become the profession of the future Understand the skills and competencies needed to be successful in the project economy This and other IIL Learning in Minutes presentations qualify for PDUs.

The Mission-Critical Project Manager - Why Our PMs Need (more) Critical Thinking and Problem-Solving Skills Many project managers have achieved mastery of the "tools of the project management trade": they are great planners, effective managers of their project teams, heroic firefighters - in short, they are competent in delivering projects. However, the number of people who can identify a problem, articulate a strategy to address it, *and* translate that strategy into reality is very limited in most organizations. Today, the ability to deal with ambiguity and complexity, acknowledge and solve new problems, and deal with a high degree of uncertainty is in high demand. For such challenges there is little to be found in the conventional 'PM Toolbox.' Adding creative and critical thinking skills is a rewarding opportunity and can make the difference between being just another PM or a truly strategic asset.

An Introduction to Professional Scrum Although Scrum has been around for more than 25 years, it is still a new concept to many. Moreover, there are myths that arise. In this session, Eric Naiburg, Chief Operating Officer for Scrum.org, provides an overview of the Scrum framework. He'll discuss how Scrum enables agility, and how an empirical process can empower teams that use it. You'll learn about the empirical process in Scrum where decisions are made based on observation and experimentation rather than on detailed upfront planning. We will apply this learning using facts and real-world examples. This and other IIL Learning in Minutes presentations qualify for PDUs.
