This webinar demonstrates how an understanding of change management can help to:
- Ensure the successful delivery of projects;
- Realise the benefits and achieve the strategic outcomes of programmes;
- Help those planning the portfolio to balance the introduction of new products, services, processes and systems with the time to embed new ways of working.
In this webinar Melanie Franklin (LinkedIn profile) with AgileChangeManagement will review the typical lifecycle of a change, from the initial realisation that existing ways of working are no longer appropriate, the concerns about how to change and the adoption of new ways of working to become the new norm.
She will demonstrate the emotional impact of change and suggest ways to generate participation in the change by all those impacted.
Melanie will also look at how this participation leads to greater collaboration between project teams and their users.
This webinar will be useful to all those involved in project and programme management, either as managers, sponsors, team members and those in the PMO. It is a very practical review of what change management is and how it can be included in project and programme plans.

Recorded Webinar – April & May 2013,
Duration: 2 x 1 Hour Webinars ( Part 1 & Part 2)
Credits: UpTo 2 PDU Category B – Free PDU
Important Notes:
The Benefits Of Agile?
Part 1:
What are our challenges:
- Building the wrong stuff
- Delivering late
- Low quality code
- Lack of predictability
|
Why this occurs:
- Poor process
- Working on too many things
- High technical debt
- Detecting errors late
|
Solution
- Deliver in stages to achieve value quickly
- Keep core teams so can get synergy effectiveness
- Provide teams with leadership
|
Available paths:
- Scaled Agile Framework
- Lean-Agile Framework
- Lean-Agile Roadmap
|
This Session discusses the benefits you get from Agile, not the how of doing it. Agile is really about delivering business value incrementally, quickly and predictably. It should not be about development iterations. Starting with the “how” of Agile instead of the “why” of Agile often leaves many business stakeholders unclear with the need for Agile.
Part 2:
Scrum:
- Describes the core roles, practices and artifacts
- Why Scrum works
- Where Scrum is best used
|
Kanban:
- Describes the core guiding principles of visibility, explicit workflow, managing work-in-progress, measure flow, continual learning which define Kanban
- Kanban as a transition method
- Where Kanban is best used
|
Scrumban
- Scrumban was designed as a transition method from Scrum to Kanban
- Scrumban can be used in its own right
- Understand how Scrumban can be a great hybrid, Agile method to use
|
While not an in-depth study of any of the methods, the webinar will illustrate why one must look at several factors when deciding on your team-Agile approach.
