Finding a mentor or mentee (or making the match as an administrator) is only one part of the equation when it comes to mentoring success.

Knowing how to engage in productive mentoring conversations plays a critical—but often overlooked—role in helping people achieve their goals when mentoring.

Join Randy and Chris for an interactive River Software webinar and explore a developmental dialogue model that can be used as the basis for mentoring conversations and can be replicated on both a large and small scale.

During this free webinar, you will not only experience this dialogue model yourself, but will also learn how you can bring a more effective dialogue process to life in your mentoring relationships and programs.

Introduction To Business Value Analysis

Agile is a great way to build solutions, products or software in a way to reduce waste, connect to needs, and protect you from risk.

But you still have to understand what to build.

A number of Agile teams are learning the hard way that their real value isn’t in following the science of the agile practices. It is about picking the right things to build for the right reasons.

Without a strong Product Owner, agile teams can start providing output that misses needs or opportunities in much the same ways as waterfall projects.

Business Value Analysis looks at the way teams make decisions on what to build next.

Usually this responsibility was left to the project sponsors (executives in the company) but the speed of change and the complexities of work systems are changing how decision on “what” is made.

This web seminar provides SDLC professionals with a first step in to understanding the very esoteric concept of Value.

It can mean many different things based on someone prospective or position, but this session will provide tangible ways to assess value and who critical thinking skills are used to support the decision process.

As well, this session will discuss how to look at business direction and connect it with the work you are planning to do.

Understanding this critical topic is the key to long term agile success, especially at the program and portfolio level.

Presenter: David Mantica (LinkedIn profile) has product managed the initiation, development and delivery of more than 300 instructor-led and live, online training courses, in software development life cycle, IT, telecommunications, finance, healthcare IT, and marketing industries.

After serving in the nonprofit community of many years, Roger Duke is convinced that project managers and project management practices can play a significant role meeting community needs.

All nonprofit organizations have visions, but their visions without plans are just dreams. Chapters and project managers have the talents to make these dreams come true.

In this session Roger Duke, (LinkedIn profile) past president of the Augusta-Aiken PMI Chapter (AA-PMI), in Augusta Georgia, will share his secrets on how a chapter can make a difference in the community.

Roger will describe the processes and tools used by the AA-PMI chapter to plan and execute successful projects and the differences these projects have made the community, the chapter and its members.

Roger will validate his secrets by presenting a case study of a project recently recognized by the PMI Education Foundation, which can easily be implemented by your chapter.
