Why Use Earned Value Techniques?

Earned Value management is one of those key concepts that you had to learn in order to pass your PMP® Exam.  Earned value is used on many government projects but hasn’t gained support in commercial or non-profit organizations.

Most organizations don’t utilize this tool because it is either too administratively burdensome, or they just don’t understand it.

In our first webinar, we will review the basics of earned value management to deepen your understanding of what it means and why this tool is so important for evaluating project performance.

This webinar Diane Buckley Altwies (LinkedIn profile) CEO of Core Performance Concepts will give an overview of the application of earned value to project management and how it can help get projects under control.

Who should attend:

• Project managers, Portfolio managers,
• Project team members, Project Leads,
• Project sponsors & function/business unit managers,
• Subject Matter Experts, Business Analysts, Scheduling Specialists and ….
• Other business stakeholders.

Raju Rao  says:
Our daughters’ wedding – a case study in Crisis Management!

This case study is based on a personal “project” – Raju Rao (LinkedIn profile) daughters’ wedding.

Being a certified PMP, it was but natural that we ensured that all copybook processes of project management were deployed for planning the wedding.

This included a WBS, scheduling where required, resource planning, risk management and procurement.

In that sense, it was a well-planned project and one week before the wedding we were pretty relaxed.

Little did we know what was in store for us.

The wedding dates were on 6 and 7 December 2016 and heavy rains struck Chennai in India from 1 December, many areas were flooded and its disastrous effects continued till 8 December.

In the midst of great challenges we had to conduct the wedding.

It was done against all odds considering that many weddings during the period were postponed or even cancelled.

I this session Raju will bring home the challenges faced and describe some interesting anecdotes in people behavior, procurement and leadership.

Raju will spell out inferences and Best Practices from this episode which can be applied in crisis situations in organizations or personal life.

Today’s IT systems communicate with customers through multiple points of engagement and various interfaces—ranging from web and mobile to bots and apps like Alexa or Siri.

These systems need to provide seamless handoffs between different points of interaction while providing relevant contextual information quickly.

Teams must be able to pair device hardware capabilities with intelligent software technologies, such as location intelligence, biometric sensing, Bluetooth, and more.

Testing these systems and interfaces is becoming increasingly complex as traditional testing and automation processes simply don’t apply to these next-generation interfaces.

You’ll also learn how to:

1. Apply new testing strategies to multiple interfaces
2. Deliver fast, effective test automation
3. Leverage real-world interface testing successes for your own team

Join this web seminar to discover how to navigate testing the array of interfaces in this new, hyper-connected landscape.
