Improving project execution with a dose of Agile!
Details
So, your organization has been trying to adopt a bunch of agile practices (https://www.agilealliance.org/agile101/guide-to-agile/agile-glossary/) to project delivery but you and you are getting lost in all this mumbo jumbo.
Or maybe you are getting tired of the way projects are delivered at your company and you are trying to find a better way of doing things (well just like the agile manifesto (http://www.agilemanifesto.org)signatories or declaration of interdependence (http://pmdoi.org/)). You brave soul!
Or perhaps you have heard of agile and you are curious on how to apply it to your projects.
If you are in any of the above situations then this session is for YOU!
