Agile has become very trendy, and it is fashionable to wear the “Agile” title before or after a traditional role, like Project Manager. To become “Agile,” one of the easiest paths is to become certified.

Unlike for traditional project management where the worldwide recognized certifications can be counted on one hand, for Agile, there is a myriad of certifications.

Most of them promote a single “Agile” framework. In recent years, the need to use Agile beyond the small software development team resulted in the creation of new frameworks which added the words “scaled” and “enterprise” to successful team approaches to agility.

In this webinar Stelian Roman (LinkedIn profile)  analyzes some of the popular Agile frameworks from the initial ones, like XP, Scrum and Crystal, to the recent “enterprise” ones, like SAFe, from the Agile Enterprise perspective. The webinar will also compare 4 Lean and Agile certifications.

In their book “Playing to Win, How Strategy Really Works” A. G. Lafley and Roger Martin argue that leaders need to understand that the work of strategy is based on a cascade of interconnected choices that start with clarifying “winning aspirations” and end with the identification of the capabilities and systems required to win.

The power of this message is that it clearly highlights …
The two sides of strategy, thinking & doing!

Traditionally speaking the field of strategy focused on the art of crafting strategy, however, executives are increasingly recognizing that this is only one side of the coin.

A successful strategy takes into account not only the realities of markets and competition but is also built on the capabilities of the organization.

This is perhaps forcing management consultants and strategy gurus to rethink how they explain strategy.

There is greater recognition now that successful strategy is not simply dependent on putting in place a strong strategy setting framework but also an effective delivery mechanism that executes it.

Linking strategy thinking with doing presents a huge opportunity for project management both as a discipline and a profession to uniquely meet the strategy execution challenge.

It is within this context that PMOs can step up to the plate and bridge the gap between crafting and delivering.

In this webinar  Philip Diab (LinkedIn profile) will explore some critical questions addressing the role of the PMO in strategy execution.

Learn:

• Are there different types of PMOs and are some better positioned to support the organization in strategy?
• Does strategy execution warrant a re-examination of the role of PMOs in organizations?
• Can the PMO embrace a mission that includes a diverse range of services and at the same time support executives in delivering strategy?
• How can the PMO add value in strategy execution?
• What capabilities does the PMO need to meet the strategy execution challenge?
• Does the PMO team composition need to be adjusted to address strategy execution?

The webinar will leverage lessons learned based on real life examples to explain how the PMO can add value to the field of strategy execution.

Technology and service providers (TSPs) should expect economic uncertainty to challenge their revenue growth goals.

Uncertainty, by definition, compromises routine strategies, rules of thumb, and assumptions. This can lead to confusion and delays in market signals, decision making, and action.

Despite these headwinds, overall IT spending increased in 2022 and will increase in 2023 – in every country and industry.

Unfortunately, this statement cannot be extended to every IT market Gartner tracks. Yet, there were TSPs that achieved breakaway growth in 2022.

In this webinar, John-David Lovelock, (LinkedIn profile, Gartner bio) Gartner Distinguished VP Analyst &Gartner expert Mark McDonald (LinkedIn profile, Gartner bio) Gartner  Vice President  will review the Global IT Spending Forecast, the CIOs’ reactions to inflation, the contextual change in digital transformation projects, and how this all affects IT markets – which are growing vs those that will retract in 2023.

Plus, they’ll review how you can use a Gartner framework to understand your exposure to and implications of uncertainty, so that you can be set up for growth in 2023 and beyond.

Discussion Topics:

• What Gartner forecasts for IT Spending growth in 2023 and beyond
• Understand which markets are positively and negatively impacted by the current uncertainties
• Gain insight from the companies that generated breakaway growth in 2022
