The Agile PMO: Can It Really Exist? Does an Agile PMO really exist? Can it? How would it work? This session will answer these questions and bring together two seemingly opposing concepts. We'll go back to basics to understand the fundamental purpose of PMOs, and how they benefit projects and organizations. Once we recognize the overall mission and vision of an Agile PMO, we will design a PMO Charter that will show how it adds value. Finally, we'll discuss how to gain buy-in for such a critical function. This and other IIL Learning in Minutes presentations qualify for PDUs.

Introverts/Ambiverts/Extroverts As Excellent Leaders Our traditional view has been that virtually all leaders are extroverts. Based on 300+ interviews with C Suite Executives (100+ being CEOs) we have found that about half are introverts and half are extroverts, similar to the normal population of the U.S. and Canada. This was a considerable surprise. Not everyone is an extreme introvert or extrovert-the distribution is a bell curve, so most people are just a bit introverted or bit extroverted-and introverts make great executives, as well.In this presentation, Karl will talk about the many strengths (and a few weaknesses) of Introverts, Ambiverts, and Extroverts and how they might become even better leaders. He will discuss how to effectively work with each type, how to be a better manager for them, and how to work more effectively for them, if they are your boss.

NextGen Project Risk Management Risk and uncertainty are inherent to projects. They influence every major project decision and eventual outcome. It is paramount to understand them to make the right decisions and achieve successful outcomes. Many organizations have recently adopted risk registers and qualitative methods to manage their project risks. While these methods are a first step, there is a strong need for more sophisticated next generation tools involving quantitative analysis. Such tools can provide us with more realistic cost and schedule estimates. They can also help us establish and manage contingencies more effectively.
