Project Management is as of today, divided into two exclusive paradigms: Waterfall and Agile.

According to companies culture and standards, the choice uses to be done once and for all, shaping the company Strategy deployment. However the trend we observed these past years is an interest, by companies doing Waterfall, into Agile Methodologies – and vice&versa.

This trend is also seen in the PMBOK 6.0.

Each methodologies provides advantages ane flaws which surprisingly are complementaray between Waterfall and Agile.

Mixed-Approaches, as observed in domains like science as an example, always provide the best results. Taylored in the right way, Project Hybridization appears to be the win-win candidate.

Pascal Arnold Varniol (LinkedIn profile) will discuss Waterfall, Agile and their Hybridization, both in Theory and in practice with some examples. The intent is that people start to apply Hybridization Best practices at the end of the Webinar.

Organizations everywhere have been undergoing tremendous changes in the last two years.

A major challenge they are running into is how difficult change is to adapt to both emotionally and mentally.

Give your people the tools and attitudes to be “change ready” – a mental/emotional state in which they seek solutions, instead of blaming others.

They look for opportunities in the changes, and choose optimism. They vent their emotions in a helpful way and accept change more quickly.

Learning objectives:

• Increased resilience to bounce back after the unexpected
• Adapt more quickly to new environments
• Sees opportunities in change instead of fighting, fleeing or freezing
• Optimism rather than the blame game
• Better health than when resisting change

Nowadays, when technology helps us to manage repetitive tasks faster and better, our role as project, program or portfolio managers changes and requires us to become better leaders, leaders who inspire the teams we work with.

A leader who inspires team members not only tells their members that they are deeply dedicated to the customer experience. The leader must demonstrate this commitment and passion in every meeting, presentation and how he handles customer issues.

The leader’s behavior must inspire employees to act in the same way. A leader who inspires the people around him is not related to a title, a role, or a position in the organization chart of an organization.

Rather, it is a person’s ability to determine the people they work with to achieve the performance and success they are lately capable of, and to demonstrate the qualities that employees will pursue through their own choice – passion, purpose, trust and dedication. of the meanings of their role in the teams in which they carry out their activity.

Presenter: Daniela Constanta Chiricioaia(LinkedIn profile)
