The New PMP® Exam in 30 Minutes PMI® recently announced that the PMP® Exam would be updated in December 2019. Unlike year's past, this update is substantial and includes ~50% of the content on agile and hybrid methodology. In this session, Sierra Hampton-Simmons, Portfolio Leader/Head of Certification from PMI, will shed light on what candidates can expect when they take the new PMP. Additionally, she will share insights from market research that explain the rationale for this change. Attendees of this training will understand the key elements of this update and be better equipped to prepare themselves and others to successfully take this new version of the PMP. 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.
Scaling Agile Metrics - Tracking Metrics That Matter! Scaling Agile Metrics - Tracking Metrics That Matter! It seems like every leader is asking for the big 'M' word now, but what metrics really should matter to them? Whether you're new to Agile or scaling Agile, you're probably thinking of how you will actually measure the health of the overall Agile adoption. Through this session we'll take a deeper dive into both the Qualitative and Quantitative metrics that should be tracked at the Team, Program, Product and Portfolio levels. We'll explore how some of these can provide predictive leading indicators (so you can catch problems before they happen) and some are lagging indicators (reflecting on what has already happened).

Effectively Leading, Managing, Working With Millennials Based on Karl's forthcoming book, this talk will focus on the how the worldview of Millennials is considerably different than that of Boomers or Generation X. In the U.S. and many other countries, Millennials are now more than half our workforce and are getting into middle management or higher roles. We need to understand them and how to lead/manage in the way they want to be worked with. By understanding their worldview or mindset, we can better understand where they are coming from and how to work more effectively with them.

How to Build Curiosity: The Key to Improving Innovation, Engagement, and Productivity Employees can be more innovative, engaged and productive by improving their natural curiosity, but they must be trained to do so and be rewarded for their efforts. Harvard Business Review found that while 83 percent of C-suite executives believe they encourage curiosity, only 52 percent of employees feel they are rewarded for their curiosity-and are therefore less likely to provide innovative ideas to the organization. HR professionals and leaders can benefit from recent ground-breaking research discoveries regarding what affects curiosity. Once organizations recognize and overcome the four factors that hold people back from being curious, they can develop training and development plans to unleash it.
