Microsoft Project is a scheduling tool, and the schedule of every project is based on one or more calendars. In this high-energy webinar, Dale Howard will discuss the following:

1. Configuring the Standard calendar in your Microsoft Project schedule
2. Creating new calendars
3. Setting the working schedule for each calendar where appropriate
4. Specifying the Project calendar and the Nonworking Time calendar
5. Specifying PTO on Resource calendars
6. Using a Task calendar to override the project schedule
7. Understanding how calendars impact the Duration, Start, and Finish of every task

Although the final topic seems to be very simple and straight forward, Dale guarantees that this topic will surprise you.

In fact, regarding the final topic, Dale says, “Always trust the schedule in Microsoft Project. And when the schedule of a task does not seem to make sense, the underlying cause is almost always a calendar.”

Findings From A Large-Scale Agile Development Program

This webinar is based on the article which won the Project Management Institute paper of the year award in 2019: Dingsøyr, T., Moe, N. B., and Seim, E. A., “Coordinating Knowledge Work in Multi-Team Programs: Findings from a Large-Scale Agile Development Program,” Project Management Journal, vol. 49, pp. 64-77, 2018. DOI: 10.1177/8756972818798980.

This article is available as open access check it out here.

Software development projects have undergone remarkable changes with the arrival of agile development approaches.

Although intended for small, self-managing teams, these approaches are today used for large development programs.

A major challenge of such programs is coordinating many teams. This case study describes the coordination of knowledge work in a large-scale agile development program with 12 teams.

The findings highlight coordination modes based on feedback, the use of a number of mechanisms, and how coordination practices change over time.

The findings can improve the outcomes of large knowledge-based development programs by tailoring coordination practices to needs over time.

“OK Boomer.”  –  “Generation Snowflake”  –  “Zoomer”

Terms like these, thanks to the internet, are buzzwords that imply a significant split between generations, but in today’s workforce — at a time of big-time change — there’s more similarity than one might think.

1. Has the experienced Boomer generation figured out how to make Change successful?
2. Or is it better managed by the Gen-Xers or even Millennials?

Obviously, each person processes change in their own way and on their own time, but there are common grounds and standard approaches that leaders can use for implementing transformational change.

In this webcast, Lori LaBeau  (LinkedIn profile) cornerstone Senior Organizational Change Leader will look at the lens used by each generation and how organizational change management can be successful across your enterprise.

Key Takeaways:

• Understanding the WIIFM factors across generations
• ADKAR model for Organizational Change Management
• Becoming a Change Leader/Mentoring Change Leaders
