Agile project management can bring significant value to an organization’s software projects. But it can also bring a great deal of misunderstanding and confusion for upper level managers used to the governance stage gates of Waterfall.

How do you position Agile to upper level managers when they are looking for the certainty of dates and dollars:

• When is it going to be done?
• How much is it going to cost?

This presentation suggests ways of identifying that combination of scope, schedule, and cost that allows the team to deliver the benefits of Agile while still providing managers with the reliable estimates they want.

Presenter: Dave Caccamo PMP, (LinkedIn profile) has three decades of experience in engineering, economics and project management. With a BSc from the United States Naval Academy and a Masters of Economics from North Carolina State University, Dave has demonstrated time and again his ability to make complex business and engineering concepts understandable to executives, managers and technicians through his fundamental modeling of subject matter.
