This is an expanded and updated version of popular session that ran on February 23, incorporating additional information based on your feedback.

Requirements Management is the single biggest risk for a majority of projects. According to PMI, 47% of initiatives that missed the mark did so because of requirements management. It’s truly is a core competency for project and program success.

Imagine your life without these risks.

  • Little or no stakeholder management…
  • Clarity around scope and direction…
  • Stable, measurable requirements, completely aligned with business needs…

Design Thinking and UX brought wild success to Apple, Google and other top players and it has been increasingly popular ever since. But what most magazines don’t tell you is that it’s not just the Design part of UX that makes it so effective, it’s the new tools for Business Analysis.

So you’ve gone Agile, so that means that you no longer have to create comprehensive requirements documents, right?

Remember the agile manifesto says that the goal is “working software over comprehensive documentation.”

So because of that, we can’t be nimble if we take the time to put together the documentation, right?

WRONG!

This month, PROJECTinsight is going to give the real story about requirements in an Agile environment.

Requirements gathering and documentation doesn’t have to look the way it has always looked, but it must have some key elements. Learn how to foster creativity, yet communicate clearly how a change needs to be implemented.

In Part II of this session,  PROJECTinsight will have their experts at Core Performance Concepts  give feedback on the submissions and talk more about creative ways to capture and retain requirements in an agile environment, enabling organizations to be nimble in their development cycles.

Building The Bonds That Make A Business Great

This presentation is based on the book The 10 Laws of Trust

  • Trust is the glue that holds an organization together.
  • It turns :
    • Deflection into Transparency,
    • Suspicion into Empowerment, and …
    • Conflict into Creativity.
  • With it, a tiny company like John Deere grew into a worldwide leader.
  • Without it, a giant corporation like Enron toppled.

In this webcast, JetBlue chairman Joel Peterson explores how a culture of trust gives companies an edge.

Consider this:

  • What does it feel like to work for a firm where leaders and colleagues trust one another?

Freed from micromanagement and rivalry, every employee contributes his or her best.

Risk taking & innovation become the norm.

This program gets you on the path to planting the seeds of trust—and reaping the rewards of reputation, profits, and success.

We encourage you to register even if you are unable to attend live; you’ll receive replay information following the event. Join Joel and gain practical insight into ways to establish and maintain a culture of trust.

Presenter: Joel Peterson (LinkedIn profile) is the Chairman of JetBlue Airways and a consulting professor at the Stanford Graduate School of Business. Additionally, Joel serves as chairman of Peterson Partners, a Salt Lake City-based private equity group with $1 billion under management. Author of The 10 Laws Of Trust: Building The Bonds That Make A Business Great, Joel previously served as Managing Partner of Trammel Crow, one of the nation’s leading real estate developers.
