NextGen Business
Competencies for PMs and BAs Part 1: Workplaces
Presented by Curtis Michelson, Minds Alert, LLC
Fast moving agile businesses need engaged teams that drive
out faster testable insights for extremely reduced time from concept to cash.
NextGen Project Managers and Business Analysts meet this challenge with their
own NextGen business competencies - to build shared understanding of trends,
customer/market forces and organizational imperatives to drive fast value
decision making. They exert new forms of leadership to help teams of all kinds
(IT and beyond) to seed their backlogs with innovative pre-flight tested,
market ready ideas
This series will be a four part deep dive into a competency wheel for new project leaders called the Discovery Leadership framework. Developed by Kupe Kupersmith and Curtis Michelson with guidance from a global community, the framework is a holistic set of competencies grouped into four chunks.
What eats strategy for lunch, or breakfast or dinner? Of course, culture. And at every level of an organization, from the project team to the portfolio to the enterprise, culture can either support or fight NextGen thinking and acting. This session in our series will explore a key differentiating edge for project leaders - their ability to adapt and even transform workplace cultures, in order to "make a space' for NextGen insight, decisions and engagement.
The session will introduce the five creative and perhaps radical ways to bend workplace dynamics towards flatter balanced cross-functional teams, dynamic social networks and open growth oriented mindsets that pull the best work out of everyone.

Leading with Emotional
Intelligence
Presented by Susan Mason, Principal, Vital Visions
Consultants
How to Lead with
Presence and Impact
Why does emotional intelligence (EI) matter? Because at the
core of every outstanding leader are the abilities to connect, achieve, inspire
and act with resilience.
Emotional intelligence has evolved from an area of research
to a recognized set of best practices and core competencies that are at the
heart of successful leadership. Today we use EI as an integrated set of skills
that underpin highly effective, fast-reacting, and innovative organizations.
This webcast offers you a powerful introduction to the
highly popular hands-on AMA seminar, Leading with Emotional Intelligence.
To give a real sense of EI in practice, we’ll take a deep
look at how EI drives and facilitates your ability to lead collaboration.
You’ll also learn about the F.L.I.P. Modes of Conversation as a “must have”
tool for collaboration and relationship enhancement.
If you want to become the consummate emotionally intelligent
leader, this webcast is a great place to start.
What You Will
Learn
· Emotional
Intelligence: What it is and why it’s such a critical leadership skill
· The 4 cornerstones
of EI
· How EI underpins
and facilitates 6 core leadership competencies
· The role EI plays
in leading collaboration
· How EI skills can
help you overcome defensiveness
· Learn how to
F.L.I.P. a conversation toward collaboration

Software Requirements and
Organizational Culture: 10 Lessons Learned
Presented by Karl E. Wiegers, Principal, Process
Impact
When a software development organization wants to improve
the way it works, it’s not enough to write a bunch of procedures, buy some
tools, and run your staff through some training. The manager leading a change
initiative also must consider the organization’s culture. A software
engineering culture is a set of beliefs, behaviors, and technical practices
that define an environment in which all team members are committed to building
quality software products through effective and appropriate software processes.
As requirements form the foundation of all the software work that follows, it’s
especially important to instill a set of effective values, principles, and
practices around requirements practices.
This presentation describes 10 lessons learned from leading
requirements improvement initiatives, including the following:
·
A commitment to effective requirements engineering is a
hallmark of a healthy software engineering culture.
·
Clearly defined business requirements are the foundation of
a successful project.
·
Taking a usage-centric approach instead of a feature-centric
approach during elicitation better meets user needs.
·
Customer engagement is a vital contributor to building
high-quality software.
·
The business analyst plays a central role in understanding
and communicating a project’s requirements.
·
No single view of the requirements shows you everything you
need to know.
·
A guiding principle of requirements development is
“iterative refinement of detail.”
·
Addressing nonfunctional requirements contributes
significantly to user satisfaction.

You'll see the power of leveling up your emotional IQ, use of storytelling, ability to harness conflict, focus on being co-creative, and a knack for making all of this work fun.
