Gantt Charts are a fine mechanism for planning projects that have well bounded activities with a clean start and end point, and with understood dependencies and sequences.

But in the non-linear, sometimes chaotic world of Product Development, Gantt Charts can be inadequate, cumbersome, or even misleadingly inaccurate.

In the session, Kelly Weyrauch (LinkedIn profile) will explore an alternative using mechanism of Agile product development – a Backlog of value to deliver with estimations of size (effort) and a reality-based Burndown that shows a plan with visible assumptions.

Together these mechanism provide an effective way to plan, track, and replan a complex Product Development effort.

APM’s Real World Project Management Series

There is a current trend that says agile methods remove the need for project managers.

This webinar will show why that is not the case, but that project managers need to consider what can be taken from the methods in order to be more agile.

The presentation covers:

• Brief outline of agile methods
• What tools and techniques project and programme managers found most useful
• Common ways to adapt and blend agile methods if full scale adoption isn’t feasible
• What not to do!

Susan is a practitioner herself, so her presentation will be grounded in practical findings which attendees can instantly implement across their projects. Susan will also describe materials which will continue to support those who adapt agile in their day to day life.

Presenter: Susan Clarke (LinkedIn profile) is passionate about supporting the next generation of IT PMs and  has been a member of the APM NW committee for several years. She is the author of research papers on agile development and project management, including APM white papers on the practical adoption of agile and scaled agile methodologies.
