Agile Project Management requires some additional skills to be possessed by an Agile Project Manager. It does not only involve managerial skills but also requires more team-oriented and leadership skills.

Agile Development is a value-driven model with focus on outcomes unlike traditional approaches which are plan-driven in nature and based on output. At the same time, the centripetal force for success of the agile-based project is the agile team which executes it.

It also requires additional skills in terms of adaptability, self-organization and motivation to continuously improve.

Agile Transformation is a journey and not a process.

It is a cultural, behavioral and mindset shift from bureaucratic to pragmatic empiricism. Agile teams improve through learning, inspection and adaption which help in bringing a consistent delivery cadence in shorter and visible iterative development cycles. Support from the leadership team is a must, and the focus of agile project management should be more on the degree of adaptability instead of predictability.

Over a period of time when the team starts delivering with consistent velocity, it helps in increasing the confidence in the achievement of customer goals and defined outcomes.

Are Your Teams Dependent On YOU?

1. Managers and leaders find themselves stuck in three vicious circles.
2. They’re frustrated by teams who have become overdependent on them.
3. They’re overwhelmed by the amount of work they have to do.
4. And they’re disconnected from their own Great Work – the work that has impact, the work that has meaning.

Sound familiar?

Breaking out of those vicious circles
Is simpler than you might think!

This webcast is based on Michael Bungay Stanier’s acclaimed book
The Coaching Habit: Say Less, Ask More & Change the Way You Lead Forever.

Mastering five essential questions can help managers and leaders increase the focus, courage and resilience they need to have more impact in the work they do.

In this practical, interactive & engaging webcast participants will:

• Discover the three vicious circles that keep managers – and their teams – stuck
• Understand how breaking out of these circles can help them work less hard and have more impact
• Learn the five core questions they need so they (and those they lead) can focus on the work that matters
• Find the Best Coaching Question in the World (and it has just three words)

Participants will not only leave with a plan to do things differently, but will also get access to a special Box of Crayons report: Four Surprising Phrases to Supercharge Your Conversation and Boost Your Manager IQ.

Presenter:  Michael Bungay Stanier (LinkedIn profile),  founder  of Box of Crayons, a company that helps organizations do less good work and more great work.  He created the eight irresistible principles of fun, a short Internet movie that has been viewed by millions of people, and his first book, Get Unstuck & Get Going… on the stuff that matters, has won a number of publishing and design awards.  His book, Do More Great Work: Stop the Busy Work and Start the Work That Matters, contains 15 practical tools to help you find, start, and sustain more great work.  He is also the author of of the bestseller The Coaching Habit: Say Less, Ask More & Change the Way You Lead Forever.

You may have heard that “90% of a project manager’s work is communication.”  But, have you heard why communication is so important and what is good project management communication?

In this webinar, Bill Brantley (LinkedIn profile) explains why communication is no longer just the transfer of information and giving directives to project teams.

Modern communication theory is based upon creating shared understanding – “the coordinated management of meaning.”   

Bill gives practical tools and methods for creating understanding among your project team and stakeholders. With understanding comes better project task execution and more support from project sponsors, customers, and stakeholders.

Learn:

1. How to communicate for understanding instead of just giving information.
2. How the “Coordinated Management of Meaning” can help you develop and lead high-performing project teams.
3. Why the project manager is the communication hub and how you can better manage the flow of project communication.
4. Why project managers need to master both emotional intelligence and cultural intelligence when communicating with their project teams and stakeholders.
5. What cognitive biases are and how they are barriers to understanding.
6. How to effectively communicate online with a distributed workforce by being virtually “present.”

Few things have a bigger impact on project delays – and project manager frustration – than executive stakeholders who won’t engage.
