What we’re about
“Agile and Scaled-Value Project Management” (ASVPM) is a periodic meetup and a forum for Agile practitioners, project and program leaders, team and enterprise coaches, volunteers, and students who want to share their insights and learn Agile as a mindset. This meetup is our public voice on how a group of volunteers is creating a self-organized global village of Agile thinkers and leaders. We are building a unique and the only existing volunteer-based Agile PM leadership organization built by volunteers and for Agile-minded professional leaders. We are employing any Agile framework that helps us to practically build our organization and learn self-organization in trusted environments. We apply Scrum, Lean-Kanban, eXtreme Programming, FDD, or any applicable Way of Work to apply “Agile mindset” and scale our values within teams and enterprises.
Due to our members’ diverse geographical locations, we will try to readjust the day and time of our periodic meetup to accommodate most of the Agile leaders to join in. This meetup is our public tribune to share our lessons learned with the community of Agile practitioners and learn from Agile leaders to elevate empirical leadership building in practice.
Periodic "Agile and Scaled-Value Project Management" Meetup will feature inspiring Agile coaches and leaders as guest speakers with participant interactions and ample opportunities to connect, share our insights, and learn how to build and scale Agile teams. Post pandemic, we will create in-person meetups at different locations to dynamically build a global ASVPM community, coupled with live virtual sharing of our joyful meetup sessions! Sponsors will be highlighted online, on marketing materials, and at the event. Please contact us (www.SVProjectManagement.com) if you and/or your organization are interested in sponsorship.

•OnlineThe Prompt Architect: Design Your Own AI Superpowers for Max Productivity
OnlineOur Agile & Scaled-Value Project Management Meetup hour in January 2026 is scheduled for Thursday, January 22nd, 2026.
Time: 12:00pm PT/2:00pm CT/3:00pm ET
Topic: "The Prompt Architect: Design Your Own AI Superpowers for Max Productivity"
Our Guest Speaker: Ian Palonis
An introduction to the meetup:
The rapid rise of LLMs has created a productivity gap: many are concerned about falling behind, while power-users are achieving massive strategic gains. This 60-minute session moves past vague theory to deliver the high-leverage mental models, practical techniques, and a master tool needed to quickly catch up on the AI adoption curve. We will demystify the mechanics of LLMs (Token Dynamics, Context Dilution) and teach you the Augmentation Mindset (Human in the Loop). The session culminates in a live demonstration of the "Prompt Architect"—a powerful meta-prompt that instantly designs and executes sophisticated prompts for complex real-world strategic tasks.
Takeaways:
- Acquire the Augmentation Mindset and the ethical framework (Human in the Loop) needed to elevate your role to a strategic AI architect.
- Master high-leverage techniques like the Persona Superpower, the Context Port workflow, and the Transcription Superpower to achieve precision and control over your outputs.
3. Understand the fundamental mechanics (Token Dynamics) and advanced limitations (Sycophancy, Bias) to anticipate and correct AI failures.
4. Walk away with The Prompt Architect metaprompt—a tool that automates complex prompt engineering, allowing you to focus on strategy instead of syntax.
