The Agile PMO: Can It Really Exist?

By IIL Europe Ltd

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. 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.

eduScrum: Turning Education Upside Down

By IIL Europe Ltd

eduScrum: Turning Education Upside Down Our world is transforming at a rapid and exponential rate. The adoption rate for new inventions is ever decreasing and requires flexible and responsive organizations with people with the right skills rather than with knowledge. Although, when we look at schools we still see the remains of an industrial age, while we have already moved to an information age and now about to enter the age of creativity. This is not so in schools, students are still sitting in rows like factory lines and only required to come up with a single right answer as provided by the teacher. Teachers are no longer the owners of the 'well of information'. Information is abundant and it is a challenge to deal with that. Creativity is needed to come up with new approaches and insights. That's what our children will need when they enter the market. Many schools know that they will have to do something with 21st century skills but very few are successful in making it happen. EduScrum, a framework adapted from Scrum, has already baked in some of the 21st century skills and can provide guidance for other skills to be used. A shift is needed to help students to develop as human beings, and let them make progress in their personal qualities.

Stakeholder Engagification: How to Get People to Take Action on Projects

By IIL Europe Ltd

Stakeholder Engagification: How to Get People to Take Action on Projects We've moved away from stakeholder management as a concept, and now the practitioner's focus should be on stakeholder engagement. This presentation will look at the differences between management and engagement in a project-led environment and provide practical tips for 'doing' engagement and encouraging participation through game mechanics. Gamification gets people to take action through the techniques and mechanics of games. We'll look at the 5 principles of using engagement + gamification that can be used to support stakeholders' engagement with project work: Track your steps. Take small actions. Create feedback loops. Keep it simple. Make it special. Understand why engagement matters over management, in all project and PMO activities Understand what gamification means in the context of the PMO Understand the 5 principles of engagement + gamification ('engagification') and how these can be used on projects to drive participation from stakeholders

What Great Executive Sponsors Do...and When!

By IIL Europe Ltd

What Great Executive Sponsors Do...and When! Numerous studies have shown that having an actively engaged executive sponsor is a key driver of project success-yet, many organizations do not assign sponsors to projects, and when they do, the results aren't what they hoped or expected. Most sponsors want to be effective but they simply don't know how because they've never been trained. J. LeRoy Ward takes the mystery out of sponsorship by describing exactly what a sponsor should do (and when during the project life-cycle) to capitalize on this powerful role and its ability to boost the chances of project success.

A Practical Guide to Introducing Agile

By IIL Europe Ltd

A Practical Guide to Introducing Agile "Don't throw your baby out with the bath Water(fall)". This is not a deep conversation about Agile v Waterfall or where to use them (that is for other talks and much deeper thinkers /agile purists). Instead, this talk acknowledges that the world we are living in is complex, where every delivery is different and not binary, i.e., Agile or Waterfall. This talk is aimed at "Non Agilists" and focuses on how they shouldn't be scared of agile and that it isn't about throwing away everything you have learnt from delivering in a more traditional/Waterfall way. It is about building on them and embracing the true mindset and heart and soul of Agile. The key takeaways of the session include: An introduction to some of the basic concepts of agile and which to focus on first How to start your journey from "Non Agilist" to a person that can deliver irrespective of environment Some of the real-life examples and approaches that have been successfully used kick start the journey for both individuals and teams
