In this presentation Kik Piney (LinkedIn profile) starts by analyzing the problems that project managers face due to differing stakeholder expectations.

Kik explains that Earned Value only addresses part of this problem.

Given this understanding, a seemingly minor change to the basis of the Earned Benefit definition is shown to deliver a general solution to the growing need for projects to take responsibility for addressing the contribution from the project to the strategic benefits required by the business.

To show the origins and the intent of this approach, the concept has been given the name “Earned Benefit-Value”.

The steps in planning and applying Earned Benefit-Value in both predictive and Agile projects is explained.  A realistic numerical example is used to explain this approach in detail.

Executives have unique issues when facing major transformation projects: they are accountable for the business case, the risk is higher, and there is extreme time pressure to achieve business outcomes.

The perspective of executives is NOT project-centric; executives must focus on guarding the customer experience throughout the process of transformation and to ensure this is not only maintained but improved.

In this session Keith Ellis, (LinkedIn profile) Chief Marketing Officer StereoLOGIC Ltd. presents a practical guide for executive leadership on how mining TRUTH dramatically alters major transformation success rates and magnitude of return.

1. Compressing project planning timelines and controlling scope
2. Isolating opportunistic benefit
3. Reducing the burden on frontline staff and key subject experts throughout transformation
4. Smoothing the communication burden in reporting errors, delays, system issues, process failure
5. Proving your business case outcomes and harvesting incremental benefit

5G is the next-generation of mobile networks beyond the 4G LTE mobile networks existing today. The vision of 5G is becoming clearer and most experts say 5G will feature network speeds that are blazingly fast at 20 Gbps or higher and have low latency at mere milliseconds!

Companies that can convince their staff to embrace what 5G is trying to do, will reap continuous deployment, incrementally adding new capabilities at the pace of a new “G” per year, but without the pain of each giant leap to convert from one G to the next.

The entire 5G approach takes advantage of containers, virtualization, SDN and NFV.

This webinar will introduce you to 5G features and architecture, and the supporting technologies.

1. Why 5G – The untold story
2. 5G service-based architecture
3. Technologies Supporting 5G
