“Agile working is increasingly recognised by organisations as a competitive advantage, where a speedier but controlled response is needed to changing environmental conditions”.- Martin Samphire

How should organisations oversee the delivery of agile projects?

This webinar will launch the guide ‘Directing Agile Change: Guidance to the governance of Agile Project Management’, and present its rationale and highlights.

It seeks to recognise that agile is not limited to software development but can also be applied to many aspects of an organisation.

Who is this guide for?

• Those involved in governance of all change initiatives
• All Boards – Organisation, Society, Programme and Project
• Influencers of the Board –  e.g. assurers, portfolio managers
• Sponsors
• Stage gate reviewers
• Programme and Project Managers

Note:  This event is suitable for professionals with an advanced level of experience.

Presenter: Roger Garrini (LinkedIn profile) has worked in the defense industry for nearly 40 years,  as a project manager and later in developing and implementing project and risk management governance and toolset. He joined the Governance SIG to contribute to the understanding of how the Board viewpoint of project management can be joined up with the project managers’ view.

The original concepts and constructs around portfolio management, as well as project and program management, work great on paper.

As long as everyone does what they should do when they should do it, all is well.

The problem is that people rarely do what they should do — they do what people do.

Simply stated, portfolio management, as well as project and program management, provide a false sense of security because they appear as proven best practices, however, they are flawed because they fail to, among other things, factor in that we are dealing with people.

A rich body of information from social sciences, when drawn upon and applied, can make the difference between success and failure with project portfolio management.

Join Robert A. Handler (LinkedIn profile, Gartner bio) as he reviews how to apply the “Science Of People” in Portfolio Management.

Discussion Topics:

• How to get people engaged in project portfolio management
• How to make the best possible decisions with project portfolio management
