Techniques for Agile Project Managers

bbozzuto — Wed, 05 May 2010 02:21:52 +0000

I just got back from the Rochester PMI Chapter’s Professional Development Day. I must say I was very impressed with the organization of the event, the number of participants (over 250) and the level of interest. Both sessions of mine were filled up. Thanks to everyone who attended. As promised, I have posted a copy of my deck here

Techniques for Agile Project Managers - This presentation has some introductory content and then discusses some of the key practices needed to help a team self organize and be effective.

Well, it’s been a marathon weekend with back to back sessions at the SNEC and Mass Bay PMI Chapter’s professional days. I’ve always enjoyed these sessions and these two were no exceptions. I got to have some intriguing conversations and meet many interesting people. In an effort to not overwhelm people’s in-boxes, I deemed it prudent to post my slides here rather then distribute them in emails.

Why Training Alone Won’t Make you Agile – This is an introduction to Agile transformation, as well as change patterns in general. It talks about coaching and the role of coaching within an Agile transformation.

Three Levels of Planning on Agile Projects – This presentation is very focused on Agile projects from the perspective of a planning (it was for a Project Management Institute audience, after all), and how different techniques are used for planning in the very short range (daily), medium range (2-4 weeks) and long term range (3-12 months).

Agile within the Enterprise

bbozzuto — Fri, 19 Feb 2010 03:59:41 +0000

Thanks to everyone from the Mass Bay PMI Chapter for coming to see me speak about Agile in the Enterprise. It was a great discussion and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I have made my slides available from tonight’s presentation, they can be downloaded here.

Also, several people expressed some interest in local Agile groups so that they could learn more. I would point out three specific ones that have monthly meetings and support vibrant communities of both learners and practitioners:

Aligning the PMBOK and Agile Values

bbozzuto — Wed, 09 Dec 2009 01:29:21 +0000

Working with the PMI Agile Virtual Community, I recently dabbled with publishing a presentation as a video with a voice over. This is a pecha kucha (20 slides advancing every 20 seconds) that I presented at the PMI Global Congress. I hope you enjoy.

Incidentally, for those of your using Windows and MS Office, this was done quite easily with Wondershare’s PPT to Video application and Windows Movie Maker.

Agile is more than “faster”, “cheaper” and “less defects”

bbozzuto — Wed, 11 Nov 2009 16:53:13 +0000

I recently spoke at the two Agile Journal Events; one in Boston and one in Newark and I spoke as the keynote about Agile Software Development and how there is so much more value to it than just turning out software faster, cheaper and with less defects.

There really is a lot of say about this, and I intend to write more, but for now I wanted to make my presentation available. It can be downloaded here: Agile Beyond Faster, Cheaper and Less Defects

Agile2009: Mapping the Change Battlefield

Giora Morein — Tue, 25 Aug 2009 15:06:47 +0000

George and I presented our Agile Battlemapping presentation at the Agile2009 conference. I had an absolutely fantastic time and based on the feedback we received from the audience, it appeared that everyone else had a good time too. This was the first time we had added the practical exercises. First the audience members individually drew battlemaps of their own projects or programs followed and then they combined into groups to create prioritized response strategies. I look forward to making further enhancements and to the next time we present it. Click below do download a PDF of the presentation.
