No Bull Agile
Presented by Marc Balcer, ASPE Training
Agile approaches, with their focus on delivering working
software through short test-driven iterations, promise to improve quality,
productivity, and satisfaction. Experienced Agile practitioners zealously tout
their successes.
But to someone schooled in traditional processes, it can all
seem strange. Those short iteration cycles can make it difficult to keep up.
It’s a whole new vocabulary. On day one coders are coding and testers are
testing. An Agile development team can be a “hungry beast” demanding to be fed
with user stories. Without the big requirements document, or the time to write
it, how can you be certain your teams will be delivering the right things and
not wasting time and money?
This fun and engaging hour starts with the dirty little
secret behind the origins of the Agile Alliance. Learn why test-driven,
incremental development makes sense whether you’re agile, just considering it,
or convinced you’ll never be. Cut through the seemingly absurd lingo, ritual,
and ceremony that all too often gets in the way. Learn how a few simple yet
powerful models can get you organized. See how a test-driven approach can
clarify that all-important “definition of done.”

Whip WIP! Stop Letting Work
in Progress Crush your Teams
Presented by Chris Knotts, ASPE Training
In this webinar, we will spend the hour examining one of
today’s biggest obstacles to large-scale success in enterprise environments:
Work In Progress (WIP). We will discuss and take your questions on where WIP is
a concern, how it gets out of control, the stifling effects it has on
productivity, and how to tame and manage it. From top-level portfolio and
program management to back-office DevOps practices, WIP is a primary concern
for teams at every level of the enterprise who are trying to help their
organization achieve sustainable, scalable agility. Join us to ask questions
and have a conversation about the best ways to manage WIP in your teams, and
how doing so is the key to revolutionizing how technology work gets executed
and how projects are managed.

The Customer Experience
Lifecycle – General Guidelines for Identifying User Experience Requirements
Along the Customer Journey
Presented by Thomas Geis, Managing Director at
ProContext Consulting GmbH
Customer experience and user experience have become
important concepts in manufacturing and marketing products successfully.
But how to institutionalize both concepts in the daily
business? While traditional development process model start with “the birth” of
the product and end with the “sun setting” of the product. A systematic
approach to “customer experience management” uses a different approach: The
“customer experience life cycle”. To identify and implement user requirements
for customer experience, stakeholders such as marketing and sales must become
part of the requirements engineering process.
This webinar introduces a practical customer experience
lifecycle model that can be reused in projects as a checklist for planning
customer research and to identify requirements for customer experience in a
systematic style. Generic customer needs for each milestone are introduced that
can be contextualized for every individual product development. The customer
experience lifecycle can also be used as a structure for requirements management
engaging stakeholders such as marketing and sales to actively specify user
requirements.

specialist, James Sayles, while he cuts through the noise to highlight the 4
key factors influencing your GDPR readiness.

the Article 29 Working Party recommendations.
•Develop a roadmap to compliance and improve readiness for
GDPR.

upon demand.
