Project Management: The Intentional Profession 'To be is to do.' Project managers focus on the tools, techniques and effort it takes to 'do' well and deliver the change that mission demands. But we can also choose to 'do good,' and that is what providing our skills as pro bono services to our communities is all about. Like PMs, service-oriented Non-Profit Organizations struggle to deliver community services in a resource-constrained environment. PMs have mastered the skills needed to make things happen in these environments. With the 2015 Project Management Day of Service (PMDoS), two executives organized roughly 400 PMs to assist NPOs in defining and scoping nearly 100 projects - in one day! That is intent. That is engagement. That is meaningful project management. This and other IIL Learning in Minutes presentations qualify for PDUs.

DevOps: The Next Evolution of Lean and Agile What is DevOps? Is it a new role? Self-service? More communication/empathy between Dev and Ops? Continuous integration/continuous deployment tools? Practices like traffic shaping and feature toggles? Culture change? Most of those answers are not wrong, but they fail to capture the heart of it. At its heart, DevOps is simply empowered development teams taking responsibility for how their product performs in production. If so, then this is not a new story. It's a continuation of the lean/agile trend which was the beginning of the end for quality assurance and business analysis as separate silos. This talk applies the lessons learned from leading lean/agile transformations to the current ongoing change toward DevOps. This and other IIL Learning in Minutes presentations qualify for PDUs.
