Overcoming the Pitfalls of Transitioning to Agile Project Management
You have to be a member to view this video.
If you've been keeping up with the agile literature, you've likely heard agile approaches to projects described as "common sense." Well, if these approaches are just "common sense," why are they so difficult to try, never mind succeed with them?
There are several pitfalls that project managers stumble on as they transition to agile. In this webinar, Johanna will discuss pitfalls such as not fixing a timebox duration, what happens when the project team doesn't commit to a release goal, not having the testing integrated into the timebox, when the product owner wants to change the requirements inside a timebox, the project team not completing their work, and more. You'll learn actions you can take, not as a command-and-control project Manager, but as an obstacle-remover project manager.
