Competencies Are Vital To The Success Of Individuals & Teams

Individuals need to know what level of what competencies they need for the position they hold today and for potential future jobs. In addition, there are mixtures of roles and competencies that are just as important for a successful team.

It’s true that individuals must be successful with their individual goals, but as the sum is often greater than the whole, the entire team must work well together and there are an entirely different set of competencies necessary for that to occur.

This yields a number of questions:

  • What are the competencies necessary for good management and teamwork?
  • How do you blend individual and team competencies?
  • What is the relative importance of individual versus team competencies?
  • How do you measure team competencies?
  • How do you improve team competencies?

Each of these questions and more are important when reviewing the subject of the competencies of high performing teams. For this session we’re looking for the good and bad examples of successful and flawed teams, the methods and processes of measuring and improving team competencies, and how even a team of superstars can falter if not built on team competencies.

It’s important to keep stakeholders aligned with the objectives of your project and obtain their support so that, ultimately, you can gain their acceptance of project deliverables and closure.

Tips will be provided to help you retain and increase the support of influential stakeholders and to reduce or eliminate the impact of stakeholders who perceive your project negatively.

  • Confirm which stakeholders can significantly influence the project either positively or negatively
  • Consider key information about each stakeholder such as level of participation, area/s representing, and key relationships within the organization

You Get What You Measure

Metrics drive behavior and implementing the right metrics to measure the right things is imperative to support any improvement initiative.

The metrics used in traditional project management, such as % Complete for Requirements, Code and Test do not tell where we truly are in delivering business value.

The Only True Measure Of Progress Is Working Software

In this session, we will examine the fundamentals of Agile Metrics and how to implement them so that we can more accurately assess the impact that agile methods has on improving the software creation process and where and when we will be done with a project.
