The DevOps “Way” of thinking is sweeping the more successful IT departments.

The implications are rippling across project and program management domains.

If you are a project or program manager, team leader, or business analyst, the time has come for YOU to understand how to derive value from the DevOps way of thinking and create positive impacts on your operational methods, applications, and your continuous deployment model.

The DevOps way is disrupting the conventional understanding of the value chain across projects – and not just hard IT projects.

As new capabilities and evidence of value arise from successfully implementing the DevOps way of thinking and working, it is important to help team leaders bridge the gap between traditional project and IT learning and the newer DevOps way such that we leverage existing resources and optimize for the future.

Join Richard Jenny (LinkedIn profile) PMP, PE, PMI-ACP veteran Program Manager and DevOps Director as he shares some real-world insight and impact of combining Project Management, Agile and DevOps practices to realize significant ROI on both project and operational work.
