Underperformance is a common threat to megaproject managers and the track record of cost and time overruns in these projects is well documented.

While front end planning is important, not all events and scenarios can be foreseen when the project can take several years to complete and may involve many companies and stakeholders.

In our research we find that the capacity to adapt to this uncertainty during the life of the project is crucial for megaproject performance but it is often overlooked as a capability. Using a case study of the construction of a US$20 billion dollar project we show that project leaders play an important role in recognizing when a plan needs to change and then navigating the path onto a new project plan without disrupting the delivery of the project.

We often hear comments like “There is no BA role on Agile projects, but since they interface with business stakeholders, they can fulfill the product owners (PO) role. Or “We don’t need requirements or project management on Agile projects.” Or BAs facilitate, so they should be the scrum masters.” Or a large part of the BA’s role is to document requirements and that’s not needed in Agile. There are so many myths swirling around related to roles on Agile projects that’s it’s difficult to tell fact from fiction.

Sort through these myths & explanations:

• Why grains of truth about Agile projects become myths
• Why when both business analysis is needed on Agile projects
• The difference between the roles of BA and PM and the work of business analysis and project management
• The difference between a BA and a PO
• The BA role on large Agile projects

• Myths relating to the Agile Manifesto, leadership styles, requirements, and testing on Agile projects
• Where we fit in on Agile projects
• How we can provide value as organizations adopt Agile

In today’s Volatile Unpredictable Complex and Ambiguous (VUCA) environment, leaders that want to deliver extraordinary results, require a fundamentally different approach to change management.

The Living Organization framework allows change agents to shift from a mechanistic view of organizations, to be oiled and optimized like a machine, to see it as a living constantly evolving organism.

An organism governed by meaning, purpose, values and other higher level contextual elements that touch, move and inspire people not just to adapt to change but become passionate change leaders.

Projects, by definition, bring change.

1. Why is it so difficult to change, even when we know how to make it happen?
2. Why is it so difficult to embrace newly learned and valid concepts and apply them?

The Theory of Constraints provides unique insight into the ever-present problem of dealing with change.

In this webinar, Angela Montgomery (LinkedIn profile) will look at why people resist change and practical ways to work towards achieving an agreed upon goal.
