The Project Management Institute (PMI) has published the 6th edition of A Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK^® Guide) and a companion guide dedicated to agile practices.

The impetus?

According to the PMI 2017 Pulse of the Profession^® report, a full 71% of organizations say they are using agile approaches for their projects sometimes, often, or always. And yet, for many practitioners the adoption of agile practices often means a diminished role for the project manager.

Join Bonnie Cooper in this webinar to explore the agile infusion in the PMBOK^® Guide and the companion Agile Practice Guide, as well, and the reality of trying to integrate traditional project management and incremental, adaptive development practices.

Learning goals:

• Review of the PMBOK Guide – Sixth Edition changes and Agile Practice Guide
• Discuss what it means to be an agile project manager
• Discuss the reality of the integration between traditional project management and agile development practices
