This session demystifies the wide range of agile and more traditional requirements and development methodologies.

The session looks at the strengths and weaknesses of each approach and gives prescriptive guidelines to requirements leadership looking to improve results by striking a better balance between agile and disciplined practices. This session refocused the agility versus discipline dialogue: it is not that these practices are mutually exclusive – the real issue is to look at your current circumstances and find the right balance to maximize success.

Learning objectives:

1. Look at the structure of agility and discipline-based methods
2. Provide guidelines for adding agile practices to traditional software development environments
3. Provide guidelines for reapplying traditional development practices to the agile software development environment.

Innovation is an essential business function and the foundation of market success, but is an elusive target. Everyone wants it, but no one is quite sure what is required to foster it. As a result, the data shows that the odds to create growth are below 2 percent.

This situation has drastically changed with the emergence of the General Theory of Innovation (GTI). With its structured perspective, GTI is a universal approach that can be applied to any organization of enterprise, and to any market.

Presenter:

Greg Yezersky (LinkedIn profile) is the creator of the General Theory of Innovation (GTI). He has been in the business of innovation since 1983. Greg has conducted hundreds of seminars on the subject worldwide, taught thousands of students and successfully consulted for many Fortune 500 companies. He is the founder and president of the Institute of Professional Innovators (IPI), a premier innovation education and consulting company dedicated to developing clients’ sustainable capability for “on demand innovation”- www.ipinetwork.com.

Microsoft SharePoint 2010 has a template for managing a project and also has a list that synchronizes with Microsoft Project, so it is clear the SharePoint team is encouraging us to use SharePoint to manage work and projects. The question is how?

Join Éamonn McGuiness (LinkedIn profile) of BrightWork as he:

• Demos why SharePoint 2010 out of the box is such a suitable platform for collaborative project management
• Demos how the out of the box Microsoft Project to Microsoft SharePoint two-way sync works
• Explains and demos a sample process for managing projects in a collaborative style with SharePoint
• Explains where it is best to use Microsoft Project Desktop with Microsoft SharePoint versus deploying Microsoft Project Server with SharePoint
• Shows exactly where the limitations are with the out of the box functionality, so attendees know where they have to customize or extend
