Microsoft’s Project Portfolio Management (PPM) solution has often been characterized as a tool suitable only for waterfall projects.

Anything iterative or Agile cannot be done using PPM. Please join Bob Tyler (LinkedIn profile) as he proves these claims false!

PPM is a very powerful scheduling tool, but it can also be used very effectively on projects using Agile or other iterative methodologies.

Using the latest version of PPM, Bob will demonstrate how it can be done, with most of the work being done directly in Project Web App. Requiring nothing more than configuration changes to Microsoft Project and the Project Server, PPM can be used very efficiently to manage Agile projects.

No custom coding or macros are required!

Whether it’s an online meeting, a presentation via webinar, or live online training, engagement is the main question on everyone’s mind:

Will it be worth my time to attend, or
Will it be an opportunity to check email instead?

Online meeting technology is powerful and has made it easy to connect with people from anywhere in the world at any time, yet  professionals often still struggle with getting everyone to interact.

Interaction is the answer to successful engagement and using the features of the platform is the answer to interaction.

However, the features alone do not engage the participants. It is what you choose to do with those features that will make the difference in your next virtual training, webinar, or meeting.

During this session, you will learn what you can do to be successful in the virtual environment and avoid having everyone ask for a recording or a copy of the slides five minutes into your next virtual event.

In this session:

• You’ll analyze the activities demonstrated and brainstorm where the techniques could be applied to your virtual training programs.
• You’ll explore the specific challenges of managing the technology, and brainstorm solutions to the engagement problems you are likely to experience with your live online attendees when technical problems arise.

Activities are the key to your success. Through them you’ll learn to manage the technology, get attendees to actively engage, and help presenters have a great time too!

Application on the Job

• Define virtual learner engagement to effectively design the appropriate activities.
• Analyze activities for specific engagement techniques and feature usage to apply to your own activity design.
• Create your own customized activities for immediate use in your virtual classroom programs.

Presenter:  Kassy LaBorie (LinkedIn profile) Director of Virtual Training Services for Dale Carnegie Training, is an indemand keynote speaker & leads a consultancy  to develop online training strategies for organizations .
