Everybody knows DevOps Is About
Bringing Dev & Ops Together

But DevOps is also about understanding value, fast delivery, automation, quality, and tuning complex adaptive systems in a way that optimizes the whole.

In The Phoenix Project: A Novel about IT, DevOps, and Helping Your Business Win  there are a lot of parallels drawn between the world of mass manufacturing and IT engineering. But even though it’s a fantastic book, Gene Kim and his co-authors only scratch the surface of these parallels.

If we are actually going to apply them, we need more. The total quality revolution of manufacturing offers more lessons for IT engineering teams than most of us realize…way more than the taste we get in The Phoenix Project would suggest.

Join Chris Knotts, PMP – (LinkedIn profile) and learn the lessons can be summed up in one word: Lean.

Imagine a world where the users will ask questions in natural language to a personal project management assistant using their favorite chat or instant messaging tool.

Each user will have their own personal project management assistant that will read, listen, understand and translate those questions into actions on your PPM tool, which is your organization’s place to store and organizes data and processes.

But also imagine that your personal project management assistant will learn and become smarter day after day based on your way of work, he will also learn from other users in your organization and he knows all the best practices in the market, which allows him to recommend and suggest the best options for your tasks.

That is how the future will be.

Allan will be exploring and demonstrating a little bit of how a personal project management assistant can change your way of working.

Presenter Allan Rocha, (LinkedIn profile) founder of Sotis Consulting, specializing in PPM & content management spent 12 years working with implementations of projects based on the Microsoft PPM (Project Portfolio Management) Solution.  Allan is passionate about Demystifying PM & making it much more interactive, fun and connected to our daily lives.
