others?

Kanban systems have emerged as a
fantastic and easy-to-use agile tool for tracking and managing workflow. But
something interesting is happening – even as application teams have embraced
Kanban systems as part of going agile, on the other side of the IT department
operations managers and system administrators have begun using Kanban as a
DevOps tool. Originally developed as a management tool for manufacturing, the
analogy of using factory workflow to create products efficiently is proving
full of lessons for all layers of IT – from projects and applications to
deployment and ongoing operations.
Join us for a discussion with
continuous integration expert Bryon Brewer, as he discusses the different areas
of the development and delivery life cycle in which Kanban can be leveraged. On
the operational/production side, Bryon will help you understand how to level
out workflow, reduce operational Work in Progress (WIP), and use kanbans to
track, visualize, and optimize flow of work. On the application side, we will
discuss how an agile shop uses Kanban to help prioritize, estimate, and keep
track of features, as well as of the build in general.

When a software development professional first hears about
Agile, they are often initially incredulous that this type of approach can work
due to a misperception that Agile simply means "no planning." This
belief could not be further from the truth. Agile teams tend to plan more
throughout the course of a project than a traditional approach, albeit in a
different fashion than they may be accustomed to. Rather than planning once at
the beginning of a project, Agile teams practice continuous planning throughout
the project. This web seminar will explore the five Levels of Agile planning,
and how they help teams ensure that teams are able to benefit from what they
learn over the course of their development and delivery efforts.

adequately, but it just doesn’t tap into our core strengths and desires. The
secret is to focus on your unique talents, skills, and experience that produce
the most value.
Join this in-depth interview with Alexandra Levit where she
will explore ways to consider your career in a new light: How to create the
career that gives you an opportunity to excel.
When you persevere and look for opportunities, you’ll
ultimately succeed. By capitalizing on your unique passions and gifts, you’re
one step ahead of those who do not.

The DevOps "Way" of thinking
is sweeping the more successful IT departments we read about. The implications
are rippling across project and program management domains. If you are a
project or program manager, team leader, or business analyst, the time has come
for YOU to understand how to derive value from the DevOps way of thinking and
create positive impacts on your operational methods, applications, and your
continuous deployment model.
The DevOps way is disrupting the
conventional understanding of the value chain across projects - and not just
hard IT projects. As new capabilities and evidence of value arise from
successfully implementing the DevOps way of thinking and working, it is
important to help team leaders bridge the gap between traditional project and
IT learning and the newer DevOps way such that we leverage existing resources
and optimize for the future.
Join us for a one-hour presentation by
Richard Jenny, veteran Program Manager and DevOps Director as he shares some
real-world insight and impact of combining Project Management, Agile and DevOps
practices to realize significant ROI on both project and operational work.

to Fix It)
Presented by
Shawn Dickerson, Michael Kaplan,PMP and Johanna Rothman
Traditional project management is twisted, tangled and broken
Imagine canoeing upstream with a broken paddle. That’s effectively what many of
today’s project managers are doing.
Whether you’re managing the corporate IT application development group—tasked
with delivering the systems that keep the business running—or any other
enterprise team, manual processes, disconnected tools, numerous methodologies,
and scattered stakeholders have most likely left you scrambling to control
projects and deliver successful business solutions.

Agile Estimating and Planning Best Practices
Presented by
Marsha Hughes, PMP, CBAP, CSM/CSP
Many people have the impression that there is no planning
on agile projects, but there are actually three levels of planning, each to a
progressively deeper level of detail. Release planning determines the scope,
schedule, and resources needed for a product release; iteration planning
determines which features will be built, and what tasks need to be done to
build them; and daily planning monitors progress during an iteration. This
webinar is designed for project managers and members of agile project teams who
need to understand how to estimate and plan agile projects.
Topics Addressed
This seminar will include the following topics:
·
Contrasting waterfall and agile approaches to project
management
·
Agile planning and estimating techniques
·
Release and iteration planning
·
Tracking progress during iterations
