Managing Agile and Waterfall Projects: On-Demand The concept of Agile project management refers to an iterative, incremental approach to managing the design and development of a product, service or result. The goal of this approach is to use it to manage the project in a way that is very flexible and interactive with the customer and/or end user, resulting in added value to the business. The concept of Waterfall project management refers to the use of a number of tools and techniques. A Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK® Guide) details 5 process groups: Initiating, Planning, Executing, Monitoring and Controlling, and Closing. As per the PMBOK® Guide - Sixth Edition, there are 49 processes entailed in these 5 process groups, which are focused on enabling project teams to deliver products to a pre-determined and agreed requirements/ specification. The selection of the most appropriate project management approach has, historically, been a choice of 'either/or' when it comes to these two approaches. It is now becoming clear that for many projects, the selection of a single project management approach does not satisfy the efficiency of the project team nor does it optimize the return on investment for the sponsoring organization. A different strategy is needed. "Managing Agile and Waterfall Projects" presents an approach to project management which capitalizes on the most appropriate elements of each approach, tailored to the specific project being undertaken. In this course, the Waterfall approach will be based on the PMBOK® Guide (predictive life-cycle). Each approach will be presented to highlight its particular strategy and strengths. The course will also propose project scenarios that require the project team to use a hybrid method which brings together aspects of both approaches. What You Will Learn You'll learn how to: Identify the strengths that the Waterfall approach brings to project work Identify the strengths that the Agile approach brings to project work Exploit the strengths of each method by combining their practices and protocols to maximize the potential for return on investment The Waterfall Approach to Competing Demands Optimization Foundation Concepts Getting Started The Agile Approach to Competing Demands Optimization Key Facets between Waterfall and Agile Examples for Implementing a Hybrid Approach The Challenges for the 'Combination' Project Management Team Practicing the Hybrid Approach Summary and Next Steps
Project Leadership Skills (On-Demand) To be effective within an organization, project managers need to have a wide variety of skills and abilities. Included among these are: creating and executing on a vision; motivating others; influencing without authority; networking; communicating up, down and laterally; negotiating; managing stakeholders; and managing conflict. This highly interactive workshop focuses on building the soft skills that are critical to leading a team and creating sustainable business change. Participants will gain insight into the social science as well as the brain science behind motivating and empowering others. They will learn and experiment with a variety of influencing strategies and tactics. Working in pairs as well as small groups, they will collaborate with others to brainstorm, share experiences, and apply concepts to everyday challenges. Participants will also discover their personal communication preferences, strengths, and blind spots and will gain insight into how best to communicate with others they find 'difficult.' They will gain insight into managing the people side of change, learning strategies for dealing with each step in the process. Hands-on negotiation and conflict management activities enhance the theoretical learning, grounding it in real life and making it actionable. Interweaving role play with experiential learning and group activities, this course will help participants refine a skill set that is invaluable to their organization, and one that transfers easily across their professional and personal lives.
