What Can Children Teach Us about Project Management?

As surprising as it may seem, the art of raising children leverages many of the same skills as managing a project team.

Fostering the growth of a child’s mind requires the creation of a positive atmosphere comprised of love, trust and enablement. Similarly, in working with teams, we strive to create an atmosphere of open communication, collaboration and trust.

This webinar will highlight and examine 7 things you can learn from kids that apply to project management:

1. Play group dynamics are a lot like team dynamics
   • no one should be left out
   • we should respect the will of the group
2. To gain cooperation, timing is everything
   • never seek it on empty stomachs or after a long day
   • understanding what motivates others is the key to maintaining collaboration
3. Learning moments need to be seized and capitalized on
   • capitalize on the sense of urgency for maximum effect
4. How to combat peer pressure
   • being unique doesn’t mean you don’t fit in
5. Working through conflict means learning to work it out
   • bullying hurts everyone, especially the bullier
6. Value everyone’s talents and approach
   • not everyone learns the same or thinks the same
7. Be consistent when applying support, rewards, corrections and routines
   • it will reduce anxiety and set a pace

Fifty years since the first Agile project, Enterprise Agility is still a hot topic, and for some, it is even a new delivery approach.

Started in the late 70s as an alternative to Lean Six Sigma, Agile became popular in the second decade of the 21^st Century when the frameworks used by successful small software development teams found their way into projects.

Agile ‘escaped’ software development and is now more widely considered as an option for other business teams – maybe because it was successful on a small scale; or the Business has become more involved in the development of new software solutions; or just because Agile has become something that any organization must have.

‘Scaling’ Agile beyond software development is a challenge because most popular Agile frameworks are conceived by software developers for software developers.

In many cases, ‘scaling’ is done by returning to Lean Six Sigma practices, the very approach that Agile has tried to improve or even replace.

Kanban is a Lean Six Sigma practice used with great success in manufacturing for almost 100 years.

It is mistakenly considered as part of the Agile ‘umbrella,’ and although it can be very successfully used in an Agile environment, it has built-in limitations that can significantly impact the most important Agility value: adapting to change.

In this webinar, Stelian Roman (LinkedIn profile) will share his practical experience with Kanban in manufacturing and software development projects.
