Agile PM Roundtable: Fostering a Culture of Continuous Improvement
Details
The abundant opportunities and challenges before us are both exciting and terrifying. And to get from the reality of today's to the promise of tomorrow, we have to do things that haven't been done before, experiment to determine what's effective, and solve problems we likely don't understand yet. Essentially, we need to improve.
And this improvement process never stops. Even when we fulfill the opportunities we know about, we discover new opportunities that are worth pursuing. Continuous improvement is natural and necessary. But it's rarely easy, especially in complex or chaotic situations. (And let's face it, the simple and deterministic problems have already been solved and optimized. So, all opportunities worth pursuing are complex!)
At this month's Agile PM Roundtable, we'll explore "Fostering a Culture of Continuous Improvement". Once people have decided to pursue an opportunity, how do they achieve their goals? What fundamental behaviors lead teams and groups to achieve success over and over again? What behaviors prevent success (over and over again)? We'll share what we know and what we're curious about.
The Roundtable leverages the Lean Coffee format to provide an open forum in which anyone can contribute their experiences, questions, and ideas. The conversation is powered by the expertise of the people who choose to participate and, while we never know exactly what will happen, it's always insightful.
We hope you'll join us!
