Organizational progress is sustained by team relationships at every level and is vulnerable to power play in times of challenge.

The advancements toward desired outcomes is an endeavor that requires influence, exerted by decision makers, for available choices and to maintain the speed of progress.

Their influence is created through a number of factors, where each has merits and demerits which can lead to residual impacts on relationships and the continuity of business in the long run.

It is important for each team member – and particularly the leader – to know the power factors that drive the desired results, ultimately impacting relationships and the sustainability of organizational competence.

Participants of this webinar will take a walk through behavioral advancements with different power relations and will learn:

• Different power factors in relationships
• Merits and demerits of each factor
• Impacts of each factor in long run
• The relationship sustainability

CD Software Development

Continuous Delivery (CD) is gaining steam as a practical set of technical processes for delivering end-to-end application value in a faster, more incremental fashion.

Continuous Delivery is also closely associated with DevOps, although there is much debate about exactly how the two terms overlap.

In this one hour web seminar, Chris Knotts, PMP – (LinkedIn profile) will bring some clarification to these topics as  he presents an overview and takes questions on Continuous Delivery.

Chris will relate CD as a set of workflow and IT management practices to DevOps as a cultural movement, and discuss the complex relationship between the two.

Key areas of discussion will include:

• CD: What is it?
• A brief history of continuous delivery
• Why CD is so important
• Continuous Delivery and DevOps
• Real-world case study: implementing Agile, DevOps, and CD at scale

The business world today is necessarily complicated, and organizations deal with it every day.

Sometimes, though, it gets really complex and the learned processes used to deal with very complicated patterns simply don’t work.

Matthew talks about bimodal delivery, where there are a set of patterns that may be very complicated, but we can navigate by using consistent work processes.

Mode 1. Some of the work we do, though, is exploratory (where we know in a broad sense what outcomes we want but are unsure of how to get them) or experimental (we’re trying new things).

These types of work we call Mode 2 and they’re not (just) complicated, they’re complex.

In this webinar, Matthew Hotle (LinkedIn profile, Gartner bio) discusses frameworks for complexity and why they matter, how architecture must emerge in Mode 2 rather than be completely planned upfront, and how to maximize the governance and delivery models that must link Mode 1 and Mode 2 work.

Discussion Topics:

• How to understand the nature of complexity, and how that matters for bimodal
• How to begin to balance architectural need vs. complexity and mode
• How to maximize delivery in Mode 1 and Mode 2 by understanding complexity
