**BAPMC JULY (Virtual) MEETUP**
Join the Bahamas Agile & Project Management Community (BAPMC) for our July #virtual meetup as we host Lakshmi Ramaseshan and Kamal Kalra to delve into the crucial topic of finding balance in our lives. In this engaging session, titled "Finding Balance," we'll explore practical strategies to navigate stress and cultivate a more harmonious existence, both personally and professionally.

**WHY ATTEND?**
You want to be your best self every day, yet something keeps getting in the way. Your “overflowing plate” does not allow you to be present in conversations and it’s hard for you to stand in your values.

You want to show up empathetically with your family, your teams, and your organization, but often you are hijacked with your own emotions and stress. Is this you? If you experience this, you need to find your balance.

What if I told you - that you have the power to respond to stress in a more generative way? Managing stress is not about being able to control where the stress comes from, but from your ability to respond to it better.

It starts with being aware of what you are experiencing, acknowledging what needs to change, and taking action towards the person you want to become. Building a life where you feel balanced takes intention, and practice and comes down to the ritualistic habits you build in your daily life. Join us for this reflective conversation where you can walk away with insights to bring yourself back in balance, no matter what life throws at you!

**TAKEAWAYS:**

* **Understanding Stress:** Gain insights into the nature of stress, its origins, and the different types we encounter, enabling you to better recognize and manage its impact.
* **Interrupting the Stress Cycle:** Learn practical strategies to disrupt the stress cycle, empowering you to respond to challenging situations more effectively and regain a sense of calm and clarity.
* **Building a Balanced Life:** Unlock principles and rituals for fostering balance in your daily life, equipping you with the tools to cultivate resilience and thrive in the face of adversity.

Don't miss this invaluable opportunity to prioritize your well-being and embark on a journey toward greater balance and fulfillment.

**Register now to secure your spot and take the first step towards a more harmonious life!**

This session will be hosted by **Andrea Pratt-Smith, PMP.**

**BAPMC SEPTEMBER (Virtual) MEETUP**

Join the Bahamas Agile & Project Management Community (BAPMC) for our September #virtual meetup featuring the renowned Johanna Rothman for a session titled "Visualize Your Agile Approach: Practical Ways to Increase Your Agility".

Does your agile approach feel more like a "death march"? Are your standups merely individual status reports, and is multitasking still rampant? If this sounds familiar, you might be stuck in **fake agility**—a waterfall lifecycle masquerading as an agile approach. This is all too common in our industry, but it doesn't have to be this way.

Johanna Rothman will guide us through recognizing and overcoming fake agility by assessing our culture, project, and product risks. She will show us how to select the right approach for collaboration, iterate effectively over features, and deliver real value.

**Learning Outcomes:**

* **Understanding Lifecycles:** Gain a clear understanding of different lifecycles and when to use each.
* **Risk Assessment:** Learn to assess project, product, and portfolio risks effectively.
* **Customized Lifecycles:** Know how to customize a lifecycle based on your team's unique culture and requirements.
* **Short Feedback Loops:** Discover how to create shorter feedback loops in any lifecycle for product success.

Don't miss this opportunity to elevate your understanding of true agility and enhance your project management skills. Register now to secure your spot for an enriching session hosted by Andrea Pratt-Smith.
