Jeudi 6 – Scrum . Org – Establishing a « Common Language » on a Scrum Team

Words matter, especially when working in any team setting. Words that are spoken or written by one person can have different meanings when read or heard by another. Scrum Teams have multiple members, which means the interpretation of words used in the team setting increases with each member. The chances of misinterpretation also increases. Shared understanding among members is needed to reduce complexity and provide greater clarity. So the need for a « common language » becomes critical to produce value every Sprint.

Create your own playbook to help your teams and organization develop their « common language ». In this Scrum Pulse webinar, Professional Scrum Trainer John Riley will demonstrate some theory and components behind a « common language ». Words and phrases become less about jargon and more about shared understanding. You will also see some techniques to use in developing a team’s common language, and how this language helps a team create artifacts. Some of these artifacts include Product Goals, team agreements, and Product Backlog Items.

Mercredi 12 – PMI UK – Project Data Analytics: Why Should the Construction Industry Up-skill a ‘Low-Skill’ Workforce?

Martin Paver is the CEO of Projecting Success and Founder of the Project Data Analytics Community. From being a young engineer through to leading a $bn infrastructure project he has always been frustrated with how difficult it is to leverage experience from previous projects. He now has the opportunity to do something about it and it is a wonderful challenge.

His quest is to work with organisations to help bring new thinking to how they leverage value from investments in delivered projects, avoid the same costly mistakes of the past and exploit good practice. He applies the latest data analytics thinking and combines this with practical experience in bids, project delivery and knowledge management.

Jeudi 20 – Scrum . Org – 7 Steps To Reclaim Your Scrum Master Super Power

Over the years, we have trained, mentored and coached hundreds of Scrum Masters. As we reflect on our experience, one truth seems to stand out – many Scrum Masters we meet are driven by a purpose.

Being a Scrum Master is not just a job for them. It is a calling to help others. It is a calling to live by principles and values higher than the principle of survival. The Scrum Master is accountable for the Scrum Team’s effectiveness and they are most fulfilled when they are truly honoring their calling.

Unfortunately, in some organizations that claim to adopt Scrum, a Scrum Master is not always fully respected and they are only responsible for scheduling meetings, typing up notes, and being a management enforcer to deliver on-time, on-budget and ever-increasing scope projects. Being trapped in such roles can really affect the morale of purpose-driven Scrum Masters and they are unable to really utilize their super power of supporting the Scrum Team. But what can Scrum Masters do to avoid this pattern? If you are interested in the answers to this question, please join us in this webinar.

Jeudi 20 – PMI – The Agile Enterprise: COVID & Lessons Learned

COVID – the word that has impacted our lives at a planetary level over the past couple of years. The changes introduced by the pandemic impacted organizations as a whole and, of course, the way we deliver projects. This webinar is a practitioner’s reflections on how COVID accelerated (real) agility, not only by forcing people to think outside of the box but to learn how to adapt to a new ‘normal’; work and collaborate remotely; and use technology to support change rather than driving it. From an Agile perspective, COVID forced agility beyond small ‘projects’ delivered by a team of software developers. COVID also uncovered some shortcomings of the Manifesto for Agile Software Development version of Agile.

Mardi 25 – APMG – How to improve performance with behavioural science

Employee behaviors can be a determining factor in the success or failure of key business initiatives, whether it be a project, a major change program or the implementation of a new strategy.

Organizational Behavior Management (OBM) is a scientifically proven, evidence-based approach to optimizing organizational performance. Increasingly recognized as “The Science of Success”, OBM is based on the science of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), combining a 7-step protocol with hard data to positively change behaviors.

Mercredi 26 – PMI – Sustainability – The Value Proposition for Project Managers

The subject of sustainability has received a lot of attention in recent times.

For Project Managers this is a unique opportunity to contribute beyond the immediate objectives outlined for their projects.

Jeudi 2 – PMI – The Agile Enterprise: Certifications – Are They Necessary?

There are hundreds of different Agile Certifications from competing organizations. Even the authors of the Scrum Framework decided to have separate certifications, and later to create various levels. Due to its popularity, the Scrum Master role transcended the Scrum Framework and is now included in many other frameworks – even when those frameworks don’t include a Scrum team. This webinar is a cost/benefit analysis of how Agile Certifications can help project delivery, offering examples of when a certification helps and what a Project Manager should look for when choosing a certification.

Vendredi 3 – PMI – PMI Certification Offerings through the Certification Framework!

An overview of PMI’s Certification offerings through the Certification Framework. PMI was founded by volunteers in 1969 and since then has provided certifications and credentials to allow individuals to differentiate themselves in the marketplace. Today’s employment market has been impacted by the disruption of traditional business models due to the continued move to a project oriented economy and global events impacting supply chains and the way individuals work. No longer does the ‘corporate ladder’ meet the needs of employees. The Certification Framework provides a view of the more ‘squiggly’ career paths that are coming into focus now and should be with us in the future.

Mardi 7 – PMI Switzerland – Level Up – Transitioning from Project Manager to Programme Manager

The role of a project manager is well-known – to manage the process of implementing change, ensuring that the goals defined by the project sponsor and key stakeholders are achieved within the given constraints (time, cost, quality, effort, technologies, etc.).

The job description of a programme manager is very different: You are responsible for the achievement of much wider goals that you then carve up like pieces of a puzzle, and you rely on a team of project managers to deliver each individual piece.

This presentation is a reflection on one person’s journey from project manager to programme manager–the challenges and the epiphanies while growing into this new position.

Jeudi 9 – PMI France Branche Midi-Pyrénées – Toulouse – Bien communiquer pour gérer les différends

Au sein d’une entreprise la communication est essentielle et peut engendrer de l’incompréhension, du désaccord ou au contraire de l’adhésion, de la coopération selon la façon dont on la pratique.

Plus un manager est sensibilisé à la communication dite « non violente » plus il adoptera une façon de communiquer qui lui permettra de réussir son management. Il saura ainsi décoder ce qui relève d’une attaque verbale de ce qui n’en relève pas et clarifier un malentendu ou exprimer ses besoins à ses collaborateurs de façon claire et efficace. Si le différend naît de notre différence, en comprendre les causes, les formes et les mécanismes est une clé de réussite pour tout manager qui doit savoir éviter ou gérer une situation difficile.

Sandra Coudreau, Avocate Médiatrice, sera notre invitée. A travers des mises en situations, Sandra nous expliquera comment éviter ou gérer un différend et comment vivre une expérience de management réussie.

Mercredi 29 – PMI – How Small & Medium Enterprises (SMEs) Can Ride Over the COVID-19 Pandemic by Practicing Agile Methodologies

SMEs represent about 90% of businesses and more than 50% of employment worldwide. SMEs contribute up to 40% of national income (GDP) in emerging economies. SMEs providing 70% of jobs and about half of economic activity across the globe are being hit hardest by the fall-out of the pandemic. SMEs are changing their business models in order to adapt to the post pandemic scenario. Solutions are needed to give them the support they need to survive. One such extremely effective and contemporary solution can be the adoption of Agile Methodologies. Agile is a philosophy which embodies practices, tools and a culture that allows business thrive in a zone of rapidly changing requirements. For SMEs, Agile can be quickly adopted due to its inherent flexibility when compared with large corporations and are particularly relevant for the post-pandemic period.

Mercredi 3 – Scrum . Org – 5 Ways to Improve Your Scrum Team’s Process

How do you work to maximize the benefits of your team to have greater agility by leveraging Scrum?

We know that Scrum is a framework, and the Scrum Team works together to define their own process within the boundaries of the Scrum framework. This includes their practices, tools and interactions, how they fulfill the accountabilities of their Scrum roles, and how they utilize the artifacts and events.

How does your team determine what to create and how do they create it? What practices (product management to engineering and quality) do they use? Practices can help enable and improve how your team communicates and collaborates to how they effectively use and grow team knowledge, skills, and capabilities. And much more.

There is a lot going on when it comes to delivering complex products in an uncertain and constantly changing world. In this webinar, Scrum.org Professional Scrum Trainer Stephanie Ockerman will break it down to 5 ways Scrum Teams can discover their opportunities to improve the many different aspects of their process.

A ‘must’ in project management! This interactive program lays out a roadmap for growing your personal influence.

Jeudi 4 – PMI UK – The Indispensable Project Manager

The project manager must develop skills and competencies in several areas to be considered for an assign. In addition there are 4 major factors a project manager must address and continue to develop:

• Value/cost: the value delivered perception relative to the cost.
• Supply/Demand: the market dynamics of your position, skills, etc.
• Likeability: how others perceive you.

This presentation addresses the importance of the professional project manager in today’s business environment and the need for the project manager to continually enhance existing skills, adapt to a changing environment, and become a “go to” person in the organization.  Emphasis is placed on understanding the business needs of an organization, clearly and visibly creating value from a client and supplier view point, and continually developing and managing personal brand.

Mardi 9 – Lausanne – SMP – Gestion de projet et gestion de connaissances, deux perspectives complémentaires

Le PMI a appelé sa principale publication « Le corpus de connaissances en management de projet ». La gestion de projet et la gestion de connaissances sont donc étroitement liées.

Nous voyons deux perspectives dans ce contexte. En tant que chefs de projet, nous réunissons des spécialistes dans une série d’efforts ponctuels (un projet a un début et une fin). En tant que gestionnaires de connaissances, nous réunissons des spécialistes à travers des projets.

Les deux professionnels – PM et KM – sont des généralistes, mais leur objectif et donc leur culture diffèrent en raison de cette différence entre la vision projet et la vision organisationnelle.

Dans cette soirée formation nous allons activement explorer les similarités et les différences de ces deux perspectives. Nous allons voir comment les outils et techniques qu’elles proposent peuvent aider les chefs de projet et les gestionnaires de connaissances à améliorer leur collaboration et leur livrables.

Technology, especially during the pandemic, has accelerated new ways of working that enable organizations to broaden their talent searches, while giving educated workers opportunities regardless of their geography, and offering employees flexibility to better balance work and life demands. At the same time, organizations as well as consumers are placing more value on diversity, equity and inclusion, spurring changes to both policies and workplace cultures.

Mardi 16 – PMI – The Concept of Shared Leadership

This one hour session explores how to apply every day the shared leadership concept in the project and programs and how/to which extent delegate. This new concept of shared leadership brings interesting challenges to project and program managers involved in hybrid, waterfall and agile projects.

Mardi 16 – Scrum . Org – Stop Pretending to Be Agile

According to the 15th annual State of Agile report, there has been a tremendous increase in the adoption of agile frameworks over the last year.  Within software teams, agile adoption grew from 37% in 2020 to 86% in 2021.

In the midst of this Agile explosion, many teams are experiencing difficulties.  According to the 15th Annual State of Agile report, 46% of survey respondents report struggles with inconsistent practices and 43% report cultural classes.

Why is this?  Often, organizations and teams that adopt Scrum have not fully embraced the concepts behind empiricism (making decisions based on what is known), and have not adopted the three pillars that make empiricism possible:  transparency, inspection and adaptation.

In this Scrum Pulse webinar, Professional Scrum Trainer Mary Iqbal will discuss the common signs of pretending to be agile and how you can use Empiricism to stop pretending.

Mercredi 17 – PMI – Astonishing Project Management Learnings from the Covid19 Pandemic

The global pandemic has brought projects to center stage, making it clear that we are all project managers, and leaders are all executive sponsors. At work, in our personal lives, and on the news, projects were suddenly everywhere, and we were part of them. Individuals and organizations have learned to come together and collaborate in new ways to develop previously unimagined solutions to unanticipated problems, as demonstrated by the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine-development project. The pandemic has shown the world how project managers can deliver new ideas and change infrastructure and systems at an accelerated pace.

Mercredi 17 et Jeudi 18 – Montréal – Agile Tour

Pour la 13e année consécutive, la Communauté Agile de Montréal est fière d’organiser l’édition 2021 de l’Agile Tour Montréal.

Jeudi 18 – PMI – Management Buy-in Is Necessary, But Not Sufficient

If you manage change and struggle with how to get support and traction, this is a webinar that you won’t want to miss.

Vendredi 19 – PMI – Setting up a PMO? Wow them in 100 days!

​​​​​​​he first 100 days for any leader entering office marks a major milestone. He/she is judged on the performance during that period and the opinion set during that time persists throughout his/her tenure.

As a PMO leader, you should take this standard upon yourself.

This will most likely not be set as an expectation by your stakeholders, but this plan of action will be largely appreciated by them.

Lundi 22 – PMI – Flexing the Business Analysis

The expectations and responsibilities of a Business Analyst (BA) are extremely versatile and vary based on the type of project that is being completed. This session covers the similarities and differences of the BA role in each of the predictive, incremental, and iterative project approaches. Focus is placed on working in the virtual environment and driving value centric delivery. Borrowing the “Context Matters and Choice is Good” concept from Disciplined Agile, we explore how a BA analyzes the Context of the situation, defines an iteration goal of what is to be accomplished, and then selects the best approach to achieve that goal. This three step approach requires a large range of skills and knowledge that helps define a distinguished Business Analyst.

Mardi 23 – PMI UK – Practical steps to become a better person, leader, project manager

Mardi 30 – Mechelen – PMI Belgium – SOS Project – The Business Game for Project Managers

This interactive session will introduce you to SOS Project, a card game designed for project managers to find out-of-the-box solutions for everyday and not so everyday project issues. The game is played in small groups, so deep dive conversations take place. As a result of this game, every participant of the game leaves with new insights, shifts in paradigms and most importantly one or more solutions to their project issues. Looking forward playing with you!

Mardi 30 – Basel – PMI Switzerland – Narratives related to innovation

Increasingly, our world seems to expect a permanent state of positive innovation and is becoming dependent on it. What are innovations, and how do we create them? Can we plan them? Can we predict innovation successes from past histories?

We will explore the role that narrative can play in innovation processes, the stories we create to make innovation happen and the stories we tell to make sense of it after it occurs with an interactive exercise. The aim of the workshop is to increase awareness of how narratives enable innovation and vice-versa and to foster a critical sense of innovation narratives.

Mardi 30 – PMI – The DE/I Mindset in Project Management

The DE/I Mindset in Project Management focus on a holistic approach to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DE/I) in project and program management by equipping managers and leaders with an deepen understanding of culturally responsive practices, techniques to better improve team outcomes, and developing stronger relationships.

Mardi 30 – ICCP – Complex Project Systems of Systems Emergent Behaviour Phenomenon

Many techniques exist to detect emergence. Some techniques may be more appropriate than others. These types of conditions are perhaps best tackled using an emerging strategy. Miller and Olleros (2000) argued that successful projects are not selected—they are shaped. Some generic examples of failure modes by Meier (2008) looked at projects within the U.S. Federal Intelligence and Defence agencies. He found a number of particular early warning signs that occurred frequently in these projects. Complex projects are characterised by unforeseen emergent behaviour and chaotic projects are where the relationships between cause and effect are impossible to determine. Others such as Sheffield et al, (2012) and Snowden & Boone (2007) also refer to complicated and dynamic projects.

Nous aurons bien sûr toujours de nombreuses opportunités de rencontres en distanciel mais aussi quelques-unes en présentiel en ce mois d’Octobre. Belles découvertes à vous !

Vendredi 1 – PMI France – Forum National des régions 2021

Nouveau Monde, Nouveaux Enjeux, Nouvelles Opportunités

Rejoignez-nous le 1er Octobre de 9h à 18h45 pour l’édition 2021 du Forum National des Régions autour du Thème Manager la Performance Autrement dans le Monde d’Après.

Ce thème n’a pas été choisi au hasard, car la crise sanitaire a impacté durablement toute la planète et nous a obligés à repenser le sens de nos actions et notre impact sur nos écosystèmes.

Ce thème global se décline en différents sous-thèmes :

• La transformation des organisations (agilité, transformation digitale, réadaptation des business models, … ) ;
• Le pilotage par la Valeur : indicateurs de performance, pilotage efficient des projets et des programmes, utilisation adaptée des données (data analyse, BI, analytics, IA, …) ;
• Sens et Elément Humain : requestionner le sens de nos actions, remettre l’humain au centre, manager les équipes autrement, … ;
• Nouveaux paradigmes et nouvelles opportunités générés par la crise sanitaire ;
• RSE et ESG : produire et consommer plus durable et responsable, avoir un impact positif sur la société ;

Nous avons donc travaillé de concert avec toutes les branches du PMI France pour vous concocter un programme d’exception proposant différents formats d’interaction de la conférence, à l’atelier en passant par les stands partenaires.

Plus d’une quarantaine de speakers évoluant au sein de la « Project Economy »* se relayeront tout au long de la journée pour nous apporter leurs regards sur comment notre métier de management de projets évolue dans ce contexte post-Covid.

Lundi 4 -> Vendredi 8 – PMI Belgium – PM Fair 2021

As usual, the PM Fair will take place in the first week of October this year. Benefiting from our experience of last year, and still with some concern about whether we will actually be able to meet face-to-face by then, we are planning a hydrid event. Monday to Thursday – we will host virtual events, similar to the way we did it in 2020, with speakers presenting during multiple sessions each day. For the Friday, we are hoping for the best, and planning a physical event to take place at the Africa Museum in Tervuren where we can meet, hopfully hug (if we want to) and also to network.

Lundi 4 – APMG International – Level Up your Public-Private Partnerships

Public Private Partnerships (PPPs) could be the dream solution but how do you go about mitigating risks and delivering maximum value for citizens? In the second of our PPP events we bring together experts from around the world to discuss and share hints and tips.

First half of the show is general Q&A on anything PPP related. In the second half of the show we will focus on how the model is best adapted for service led PPPs, what are the unique challenges associated and is this a way to inject innovation?

Mardi 5 – IIBA Geneva – Parler en public avec confiance

Aujourd’hui dans tous les corps de métiers on nous demande de plus en plus de présenter des produits, des services, des projets en cours, voir même de faire des conférences en lien à notre activité. Mais nous ne sommes pas tous égaux devant cet art oratoire si particulier, car il faut…

Mercredi 6 – PMI Communauté Francophone – « Le prochain virus sera cyber ! » avec Alain Bauer

« La guerre d’internet continue pendant la crise épidémique. Non seulement sur la 5G, sur le traçage des individus, sur la neutralité du net, sur le contrôle des données, mais aussi sur la gouvernance de l’outil. Certains fonctionnent déjà en mode dégradé et pourraient se passer du réseau mondial. D’autres n’ont pas encore pris la mesure de leur dépendance. La prochaine épreuve de souveraineté dépassera en ampleur celle des masques, des respirateurs ou des réactifs».

Après un état des lieux de la guerre d’internet, nous discuterons de la vision sur la manière de se préparer face à la crise cyber afin de sauver l’essentiel et de préserver la vie des entreprises, des institutions et de nombreux citoyens.

Mardi 12 – ICCPM – Project Management Re-Imagined: Taking a People-Centric Approach to Improving Project Controllability and Success

This webinar is designed to introduce participants to some of the concepts and challenges of researching projects when taking a people centric approach in a real world setting. This is about harnessing project team people on projects in a much more productive manner in order to assert collaborative control over the execution of the project to improve project controllability and success. The presentation uses ‘rich pictures’ as per the Soft Systems Methodology (Checkland, 2000) coupled with a quick fire verbal narrative to link them together rather than just a series of bullet pointed slides.

It is far reaching in its scope and in total puts on display the length, breadth and some of the depth of this work limited only by the time available for the webinar. In effect, a demonstration of the fact that while we know a lot about projects it highlights how little we really understand. At the end there is a call to action for participants to get their organisations involved in the research for the mutual betterment of the project industry – albeit in a covid friendly manner.

Mercredi 13 – Gouti – Présentation de l’outil

Jeudi 14 – PMI UK – How to become a better person. The human side of The Project Economy.

Humans are at the core of projects, as teams that deliver change, as users that need change and as society at large to become better for all. Leadership is needed more than ever in times of more frequent and deeper disruptions, as everybody looks for safety and predictability. Teams, customers and humanity are served best if leaders act ethically.

Questions reflected on in the presentation, practically and philosophically are

• What does being ethical mean, which values do we have in common?
• How can we become better as ethical leaders?
• Which tools can we use to improve ourselves?
• Why do we recognise good leadership when we see it?

Jeudi 14 – Scrum . Org – Top Ten Meanest Scrum Anti-Patterns with Professional Scrum Trainer Stefan Wolpers

Let us delve into the abyss of Scrum anti-patterns — from bad to really bad to ultimate, baddest anti-pattern imaginable — and what you as a Scrum practitioner can do about it. In this Scrum Pulse webinar, Professional Scrum Trainer Stefan Wolpers will bring his top ten Scrum anti-patterns for a 20-minute introduction to the topic: from using Scrum for the wrong reasons to lemon code to stuffing your Product Backlog to patronizing team members. And then, we will have a Q&A session addressing the Scrum anti-patterns that are most challenging to you. After all, you need to excel at many things to become a good Scrum Team at the same time. Failing, however, is significantly “simpler.”

Mardi 19 & Mercredi 20 – PMI UK – Transforming the Net Zero Landscape through the Power of Projects Conference.

The two-day conference will take place in Hopin, an all-in-one virtual event platform where attendees can learn, interact, and connect with people from anywhere in the world.

These will be augmented by case studies and good practice sessions to showcase existing and future initiatives and expose participants to new ways to get involved and ‘give-back.’ Crucially, the sessions will demonstrate to project managers and their organisations, the part that they must play in the ‘delivery’ of the projects necessary to combat climate change.

Jeudi 21 -Scrum . Org – How To Scale Scrum with Nexus™, Confluence & Jira – A Step By Step Approach

The complexities of product delivery require coordination using both a framework and tools that work together, allowing you to effectively integrate multiple teams who are working on the same product.

The Nexus framework for scaling Scrum can help minimize cross-team dependency while continuing to adhere to the principles of Scrum, and the Atlassian tools can help teams organize your projects and collaborate with ease – provide one source of the truth.

Jeudi 28 – IIBA Geneva – La BA et la Philosophie

Savoir philosopher pour apporter une plus-value organisationnelle. L’analyse d’un besoin pour concevoir un nouvel outil implique que le client ait eu l’idée de ce qui allait améliorer sa situation. Souvent c’est un consultant habitué à sa situation qui lui a prescrit un remède commun. Mais…

We all know:

Mardi 6 – PMI UK – Influence above authority, the key to successful leadership

f you are a leader, manager or in a PM position where influence is key, you may well be:

• frustrated when your messages does not seem to land
• recognise that you are only positively influential in certain situations
• lacking confidence when you have to influencepeople higher up the food chain
• struggling to get people to say yes on a consistent basis
• at your wit’s end when you seem to get agreement for action, and nothing happens
• annoyed with certain stakeholders who often seem to ignore perfectly reasonable demands.

What you are looking for is the how-to’s.  How to influence more people, more of the times. Techniques and tools that work consistently that you can learn easily and, effortlessly.

Mardi 6 – Swiss Cognitive – As AI Makes More Decisions, the Nature of Leadership Will Change

This CognitiveVirtual will shed light on the change in leadership, which is corresponding to renewed business environments driven by cognitive technologies for the benefit of business and society.

Mercredi 7 – PMI Communauté Francophone – Le management de projets : une compétence pour la vie !

PMI est une organisation « avec un socle de valeurs », avec un propos, un but plutôt qu’un objectif de profit. Cette caractéristique n’est pas un vain mot. C’est le différenciateur entre une organisation résiliente et une autre amenée à disparaitre. PMI est dédiée à développer la capacité de chacun à avoir un impact sur son environnement, local, communautaire, organisationnel ou sociétal. Ce trajet commence avec les actions de la Fondation pour l’Education (PMIEF). Nous allons voir comment PMI et PMIEF proposent de développer les compétences nécessaires pour engager nos jeunes à être les vecteurs futurs du changement, maintenant.

Mercredi 7 – PMI – Finding Confidence in Conflict

Managing conflict is a critical competency for every leader and employee. Unfortunately, many people choose simply to ignore conflict and hope it goes away by itself, thinking that it’s not my call to resolve it. However, conflict is an essential part of growth, especially when there is a need to be innovative and creative, when deadlines are tight, and when the directions are unclear. So, if you prefer to keep quiet while facing a difficult situation, and hope it will blow over, this presentation will be helpful for you to get some confidence and change your perspective of conflicts.

Jeudi 8 – PMI France Côte d’Azur – L’équilibre vie Pro / vie Perso – une équation à (ré)inventer !

Travail, famille, loisirs, santé, relations : nos vies ont beaucoup de facettes, et les priorités s’entrechoquent parfois. Dans cette présentation, nous aborderons un autre angle pour penser ce fameux équilibre, tout en souplesse, pour rester aux manettes de ses choix et donner une place à tout ce qui compte pour soi.

Jeudi 8 – IIBA Geneva – Le rôle du Business Analyst dans l’activité de test logiciel en contexte agile

Les pratiques de développement agiles se répandent rapidement au sein des Directions du Système d’Information, soumises à des impératifs de time-to-market toujours plus courts. Ces nouvelles pratiques s’accompagnent de nouveaux outils, de nouvelles méthodes, d’un nouveau vocabulaire (stand up meeting, sprint, poker planning, 3 amigos meeting, etc.). Elles bouleversent surtout les organisations en mettant la collaboration en continue au centre du jeu, là où le modèle tayloriste avait instauré des silos communiquant les uns avec les autres au travers de documents maintes fois interprétés.

Dans ce contexte, le test logiciel, longtemps relégué en fin de chaine du développement comme variable d’ajustement des mises en production, est revenu à une position centrale, entre l’expression du besoin et sa réalisation. Plus encore, l’approche Test-Driven Development (TDD) et ses avatars BDD (Behaviour-Driven Development) et ATDD (Acceptance Test-Driven Development) ont fait du test l’expression-même du besoin, la définition du « done ».

Dans ces conditions, quel rôle doit jouer le business analyste dans l’activité de test logiciel ? Comment BA et testeurs interagissent-ils désormais ? Nous aborderons ces questions en nous appuyant sur une méthodologie et un outil d’ATDD visuel.

Jeudi 8 – PMI Tunisie – PMBOK Guide 7^eme Edition

L’équipe du PMI Tunisia Chapter est ravie de vous proposer une info session en ligne sur la 7ème édition du PMBOK. La discussion sera animée par nos chers volontaires et membres, formateurs, coachs et consultants experts : Mme Yosra Torjmen et M. Absi Halim.

The Scrum.org Ask a Professional Scrum Trainer series, features Professional Scrum Trainers (PSTs) in a live session, answering your most pressing questions regarding the challenges and situations your Scrum Teams are facing.

In this episode of Ask a Professional Scrum Trainer, Professional Scrum Trainer Punit Doshi answers your burning questions about Scrum and the challenges your teams are facing.

Jeudi 8 – PMI UK – Outcomes thinking – the missing link for delivering value

Getting value from projects continues to be a problem, despite the myriad solutions that have been applied over the last decades and the improvement in project methodologies and tools. This session will discuss why delivering value requires more than just “finishing the project” on time and budget.

Vendredi 9 – PMI – The Agile Enterprise: Risk Management in an Agile World

Since the term, agile, grew popularity in the second decade of the 21st century, Risk Management was one of the strong selling points of various agile frameworks. According to agile surveys, reducing risk is one of the main reasons for agile adoption. However, none of the agile frameworks provide guidance on Risk Management. Most of them are limited to a simplistic view that by delivering in small increments risk is limited to the value of a single sprint. The reality is far more complex, and it is not limited to coding or technical skills. A project is dependent on context, on organizational culture, and last but not least, on people’s desire to work as a team and succeed. This webinar is a brief introduction to how important Risk Management is, how it can be done in agile, and why risk, especially in Agile, should not have a negative connotation. Real-life examples will be used to illustrate how the Project Manager, Scrum Master, and the whole project team can take advantage of Risk.

Mardi 13 – Scrum . Org – How to Make OKRs Better – Outcomes over Outputs

Objectives and Key Results (OKRs) are a powerful tool for setting and measuring goals, but like all power tools, they can come with great responsibility. Matt Hodgson, CEO and Executive Agile Coach of Zen Ex Machina and Patricia Kong, Product Owner of Enterprise Agility at Scrum.org will discuss how to use OKRs in informed ways, so that they can help organizations improve focus and lift outcomes. In this webinar, they will explore how to improve your use of OKRs by using Evidence-Based Management, an empirical framework developed by Scrum.org, including how to align OKRs with strategic goals, and why focusing objectives on activities and outputs leads to poorer results than focusing on outcomes.

Mercredi 14 – PMI – Six Strategies for Dealing with Difficult Stakeholders

Have you ever lost sleep because of a difficult stakeholder? Maybe it was a boss, peer, or someone on the other side of the business. Perhaps it was worry about having to deal with them in an upcoming meeting. Or ruminating about how they are an obstacle to progress on a project. So much of our success leading and directing projects and change initiatives comes down to our ability to influence our project stakeholders. Experience teaches us that managing their expectations and building rapport with our key stakeholders can make an enormous difference in our ability to successfully deliver. But the truth is some of our stakeholders are difficult. And though you can unfriend people on social media, you can’t unfriend a stakeholder–you have to learn how to deal with them. In this session, Andy Kaufman shares six strategies for dealing with difficult stakeholders. There are no simple answers, but these are strategies that Andy has shared with clients around the world, and you’re invited to see which ones you can put into place. After all, you deserve a better night of sleep!

Jeudi 15 – PMI – Product Thinking From An Agile Coach Perspective

As a Coach, Is our mandate only to Coach & Transform our Development Teams? Or should we also coach our Product teams. Many Agile transformations do not succeed as they fail to address the Coaching needs of the Product Ownership teams. It is important that we as coaches focus on our product owners and coach them the right way of product development. This webinar looks at product development from an Agile coaches perspective.

Vendredi 23 – PMI – The Agile Enterprise: Project Roles and Responsibilities in Agile

Agile found its way into project delivery with many certifications attempting to define various agile roles, some of them project-related. Although the Manifesto for Agile Software Development is against specialization in an Agile Team, all the traditional roles have become « Agile » by sticking the « Agile » label to the old job title: for example, Agile Project Manager, Agile Tester, Agile Business Analyst, « Agile » Scrum Master and the « Agile » Coach. Most Agile frameworks, like Scrum, Crystal, and XP, were conceived by developers for a small team of software developers, and the Project Manager role is usually omitted. Unlike ‘specialized’ Agile Project Manager certifications, PMI’s Project Management Professional (PMP)® remains the industry benchmark for the Project Manager role, providing an increased focus on Agile and Hybrid practices without compromising the knowledge required to manage projects that can’t or won’t use Agile practices. This webinar is a comparative analysis of various roles in a project that uses agile practices and how various project roles should change to adapt to a new way of delivering projects.

Lundi 26 – PMI – The Role of Social Media in Intrastakeholder Strategies to Influence Decision Making in a UK Infrastructure Megaproject

This webinar examines the role of social media in public stakeholder and intrastakeholder group strategies to influence decision making in the consultation stage of UK infrastructure megaprojects. The context is the consultation process on the construction of a new Crossrail 2 station in Chelsea, London, where there is resistance. Analysis of social media communication by the affected public groups and interviews with the opposing group shows different intragroup concerns, with stakeholders developing a strong identity enabled by social media. To reduce perceived lack of responsiveness, we recommend that project managers harness social media marketing principles for ongoing relationship building.

Mardi 27 – PMI – Don’t Just “Go Agile”!

The world is changing faster than ever, and the next disruption is just around the corner.

Mercredi 11 – PMI – Work from Home (WFH) Experience Calculator, a Useful Tool for Project Managers

This webinar will introduce you to a free tool aimed at evaluation and improving your (and your project team’s) Work from Home (WFH) experience. Like millions of others, I started working from home in 2020. Most of my clients also started working from home and I was asked a range of questions related to how to work from home effectively. Being involved in the interior fitout business I was keen to provide some answers and having conducted extensive research and discussions I have identified nine key elements to keep in mind when working from home. This is especially applicable to project managers as they need to work from home themselves and ensure their project team members are able to work from home optimally. The WFH calculator works as follows: read the information pertaining to each element and give yourself a score for each element. This is known as your baseline score. Identify elements where you gave yourself a low score and make some changes (as per the recommendations in the guide) aimed at improving your score on the particular element/s in question. Rescore yourself monthly as you make changes. As your score improves so too will your WFH experience. Share this information with your project team and as their scores improve so too will their WFH experience. Some changes will be easy, some will be difficult, some will be impossible so start with what you have and aim to maximise your own score. As a project manager you should also guide your team members to improve their WFH experience and this tool provides a structured method to do so.

Jeudi 12 – PMI – DCMA 14-Point Assessment: A Hands-On Practice in Construction Schedules

A project schedule is an indispensable tool in the hands of a Project Manager to efficiently manage and direct project work. A well-constructed and maintained schedule is a key ingredient needed for the success of any project. The DCMA 14-point assessment offers a project manager an industry defined method to quantitatively evaluate a schedule and improve its quality. The project manager may use the DCMA 14-point assessment at the beginning of the project as a set of guidelines for developing a logic driven, solid and manageable schedule, and throughout the life of the project, as a set of health checks for periodically evaluating the schedule against a set of measurable criteria. It is not always easy to change traditional scheduling practices and compromise the apparent simplicity of a schedule.

Vendredi 13 – PMI – The Agile Enterprise: Using Agile to Fast Track Process Improvement

Agile, the new approach that in 1970 was created to replace Lean Six Sigma, is now ‘scaling up’ by reverting to Lean Practices, such as Kanban, Theory of Constraints, Voice of Customer, and, Kaizen. Although the main scaled Agile frameworks originated as Lean frameworks, the Process improvement practices, including the very important Six Sigma component that is the most mature and confirmed way of measuring the impact of process improvement initiatives, were left out. This is partly because they require more complex and nuanced skills and knowledge and partly because they are associated with manufacturing, whilst most Agile frameworks originated in software development. In some cases, the reason for avoiding mentioning the Lean Six Sigma origins of most scaled Agile practices is just because some of the well-known Lean Six Sigma practices are now at the core of various Agile certifications. Although Lean goals (e.g., eliminate waste, adoption of standardized processes) are in opposition to the Agile mindset that fundamentally embraces change, allows good waste, and is against reliance on standardized processes, Lean and Agile can complement each other and adapt to change in an efficient way. This webinar is a presentation on how the most mature Process Improvement approach, Lean Six Sigma’s Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, Control (DMAIC), can be used to fast-track Agile adoption as well as how it can be used to convince senior management that Agile can be a solution for core issues and a way to improve the bottom line.

Jeudi 26 – PMI Lebanon – Open Your Eyes to Your Blindspots

Lundi 30 – PMI – Senior Leaders’ Expectations on Project Management – New Insights from Harvard Business

As the number of projects in organizations skyrocket, understanding project fundamentals and fostering project management skills have become essential. Leaders have too many projects with too little visibility into them, and they lack the project oversight and delivery competencies to untangle them. In a recent survey with Harvard Business Review, we wanted to look at the current challenges faced by senior leaders when dealing with projects and project management, as well as their expectations for the future. The results, combined with other case studies, will help us better understand how organizations are using projects now, where they are finding success with projects, and where they are struggling. The session will help project managers translate their hands-on know-how up to the leader’s-eye view.

Mercredi 2 – PMI UK – The Failed PMO

Mercredi 2 – PMI – Change on the Run: Surviving Workplace Uncertainty

Workplace change has never been at a higher rate or faster pace than now. PMOs, leaders and their teams grapple with multiple disruptions, from mergers and acquisitions to restructuring, pandemics, and digital transformations. In today’s dynamic environment, being successful in change is not about being perfect; it’s about being fast and effective so you can move on to the next task or issue—the speed of execution matters. Adopting one 80/20 action to address common project challenges is the best strategy. It gives you 80 percent of the results in 20 percent of the time. In this upbeat and interactive session, we will discuss how you can apply the 80/20 rule to focus in on one action to navigate the tasks and common situations that Project Managers typically encounter during a transformation project.

Vendredi 4 – PMI – The Agile Enterprise: Agile Project Manager – Evolution or Regression?

Agile found its way into project delivery with many certifications trying to define various Agile project roles. Most Agile frameworks, such as Scrum, Crystal, and XP, were conceived by developers for a small team of software developers, and the Project Manager role is usually omitted. Unlike some specialized Agile Project Manager certifications, PMI’s Project Management Professional (PMP)® remains the benchmark for the Project Manager role with an increased focus on Agile and Hybrid practices but without compromising the predictive knowledge required to manage projects that can’t or won’t use Agile practices. This webinar is a comparative analysis of the Scrum Master, seen in some organizations as a replacement of the Project Manager role; various flavors of the ‘Certified Agile Project Manager’; and the standard Project Manager role.

Mardi 8 – PMI Montréal – Risque et incertitude dans le projet d’ingénierie

Les projets d’ingénierie ont tendance à présenter de nombreuses incertitudes en raison du manque d’informations ou d’informations peu fiables, des nouvelles technologies, de la complexité des projets ou même de facteurs imprévisibles.

Mardi 15 – PMI Switzerland – Open Space Forum on Stakeholder and Team management

Getting stakeholders engaged and teams performing is always a challenge when we start a new project. Doing it remotely is even harder. Doing it in a “working-from-home” reality makes it quite difficult. Have you had recently that feeling that when you were talking no one did not seem to be listening? Or when you asked a question there was no answer?

How do you ensure that your stakeholders are engaged? How do you motivate your team to deliver? What about virtual agile teams? How do you resolve conflicts?

If you attended the Empowering Each Other When Working Remotely workshop, you could see how active listening and constructive feedback make a difference in creating a collaborative, encouraging environment resulting in positive outcomes.

Mardi 15 – PMI – Disciplined Agile Risk Management: Address Risk, Don’t Just Manage It

The Disciplined Agile (DA) tool kit has management and governance strategies explicitly built into it. DA does this at the team level with the Address Risk process goal and at the enterprise level with the Governance process blade. But wait a minute – Address Risk, not Manage Risk? The difference is a subtle but important nuance. There are many issues for teams to consider, and options to choose from, when they identify how they may best address the risk that they face. But addressing risk at the team level is only a good start, we must also address enterprise risk as well. What appears to be small, acceptable risks at the team level soon add up to unacceptable risks at the organizational level that must be addressed appropriately.

Mardi 15 – PMI UK – Using LinkedIn effectively: both professionally and personally

Mercredi 16 – PMI Montréal – Introduction à la Gestion de Portefeuille de Projet sous contrainte

Votre organisation a établi son plan stratégique à 10 ans. Pour atteindre les objectifs, 200 projets ont été identifiés, porteurs de 100% de la valeur stratégique souhaitée. Le budget total est de 1 milliard d’euro sur 10 ans, or le budget alloué est de 500 millions d’euro. Cela signifie-il que l’organisation ne livrera que 50% de la valeur stratégique à terme ?

Quels projets doit-on abandonner, sachant que certains sont incontournables ? En 10 ans, de nouvelles opportunités de projet verront le jour, des technologies deviendront obsolètes : comment intégrer ces nouvelles dimensions ou retirer certains projets du portefeuille ?

Pour répondre à ces question, PMI vous invite à explorer les fondamentaux de la gestion de portefeuille, illustrés par des scénarios conçus à l’aide de MS Project Online. Un temps d’explorations aux applications AGILE est réservé dans cette présentation.

Mercredi 16 – Scrum . Org – Want to Flow faster? Then get your 4×4 in gear

Understanding the 4 Kanban practices and the 4 Kanban metrics of Professional Scrum with Kanban.

Mercredi 16 – APMG – Being Agile

Agile is a word associated with progress, with momentum, and is a shorthand for describing how organizations want to operate. It is so common that applying agile techniques and having an agile mindset appear in job descriptions and interview questions all the time. However, experiences differ:

• Everyone seems to have a different definition and meaning to agile and agility.
• Many of us are working in ‘agile’ environments but often this is limited to certain activities and not a widespread adoption of the agile mindset across the organization.
• We know an agile approach will fit better with all the uncertainty around us but are not sure how to get started.

In this webinar presenter Melanie Franklin will take us through the top 10 things we can do to adopt higher levels of agile practices and techniques into our everyday work. Her suggestions apply to those in project and programme roles, change roles and to line managers and executive leaders. Her ideas are practical, but they all require a shift in behaviour and habits, so the challenge will be how much of what she shares you can (and will) put into practice!

Whether you know lots about Agile methodologies or have had limited exposure, these practical ideas are suitable for all.

Mercredi 16 – PMI – How to Choose the Right Low-Code/No-Code Solution for Your Citizen Developer Project

Jeudi 17 – PMI – Agility in a Nutshell

This webinar will start with an explanation of what agility is and how it applies in organizations in concepts like business agility, product agility or team agility. Next we will focus on two aspects of agility for projects. The first is where projects need to be able to adapt to the changing business and customer needs, in order deliver products that provide value. The second aspect is how to manage your project to adapt to the environment of changing customer expectations, risks, constraints, people, and technology.

Vendredi 18 – Agi’Lille

Comme chaque année un évènement majeur de l’agilité arrive à Lille. Cet événement unique en son genre, précédemment connu sous le nom d’Agile Tour Lille, alliant convivialité et proximité, a été apprécié et vivement plébiscité pour qu’il soit reconduit une nouvelle année.

Mardi 22 – Scrum . Org – Should A Project Manager Become A Scrum Master?

This question comes up often: “I am a project manager and our company is moving to agile or Scrum, does that mean I will now become a Scrum Master?” In response, we hesitate and then give the unwelcomed answer of “It depends.” And it really does depend. The Scrum Master role is deep and wide. Scrum Masters need to support their teams while working with the rest of the people in their organizations to build awareness and enable greater agility. A Scrum Master’s job is not to manage a project or deliver status reports — duties that people associate with the role of a traditional project manager. As a matter of fact, Scrum Masters may not get involved in status reports at all. In this webinar, Eric Naiburg, COO, Scrum.org, will discuss the potential move to an agile way of working, the role of the Scrum Master, and what that means for people currently in the role of Project Manager.

Jeudi 24 – PMI UK – How to develop and operate a successful Lessons Learned Program as an important Organisational Process Asset

Learning from lessons of the past projects is essential for organisations and projects to prevent mistakes from happening over and over again. Lessons Learned repositories are identified as important Organisational Process Assets, and evaluating the lessons in such repositories in key stages of the project is strongly emphasized in the PMBoK. However, many companies fail to implement successful lessons learned programs and cannot convince PMs and project teams to spend their scarce resources for learning.

Vendredi 25 – PMI – The Agile Enterprise: Change Management in an Agile World

For some agile teams, especially software development teams, the term « Change Management » is associated with the ITIL style Change Control, an engineering process created to manage risks associated with production deployment. Despite the optimistic view presented by most agile frameworks, Organization Change Management is hard. The transition to agile is often harder than any other transformation because it requires a mindset change at all levels, supported by a huge shift in the organizational culture. This webinar is a practice-based presentation on the importance of Organization Change Management in Agile Transformations and the critical role that the Project Manager must play.

Mardi 29 Juin – PMI UK – Design Thinking for Projects

In the current business environment, project leaders must look beyond the foundational knowledge of managing projects and embrace more innovative practices and methodologies. Design Thinking enables project teams to solve business problems by following an iterative process and focusing on their customer’s or user’s standpoint. It is another method that can be added to a project leader’s toolbox to help manage risk, customer expectations, and to ensure stakeholder alignment.

Mardi 29 – PMI – Dealing with the Organizational Change Management Workstream in Your Project

Every project has multiple work streams that project manager must ensure are ready to help deliver the promised benefits of the initiative.

However, there are OCM specific tools and techniques the project manager can use to effectively deliver this workstream. This presentation will explore those technical details and also discuss a communication strategy, so all stakeholders are aware of the workstream and the value it adds to the project.

Mercredi 30 – PMI – Acculturation à la Gestion de Projet

Lundi 3 – CSP – Télétravail : Faire du stress un allié

Depuis le début de la crise sanitaire, l’organisation du travail a bien changé avec notamment la montée en puissance du télétravail. On pense souvent aux bienfaits de cette nouvelle organisation de travail, mais moins aux aspects négatifs alors qu’il peut être source de dépression, d’anxiété et de stress.

Nous verrons en quelques chiffres les spécificités du stress en télétravail, nous apprenons à lâcher les tensions inutiles, et à cultiver une énergie positive grâce à de nombreux exercices pratiques, pour se donner enfin les moyens d’organiser une journée sereine plutôt que d’en subir les contraintes.

Mardi 4 – PMI – 2021 and Beyond….5 Disruptive Trends in Project Management

In the next five years, the world will see more projects than ever. The reconstruction of the economy, healthcare, social care, and society at large after the devastating global pandemic crisis, will be unprecedented in human history. According to McKinsey, Governments’ have announced $10 trillion in reconstruction funds just in the first two months of the crisis, which is three times more than the response to the 2008–09 financial crisis. These are millions of projects, which will need millions of project managers.

However, despite this positive outlook, significant trends will put at stake the project management profession that we have learned to know in the past 40 years. We should consider these signals as an urgent call for profound change in our practices and a much needed evolution in our competencies. A small price to pay compared to the unique opportunity that the project management profession has to lead what I call our new world driven by change.

Mardi 4 – IIBA Geneca – Empowering People in the Workplace – des pépites pour une collaboration positive

Travailler en équipe, c’est mieux ! On peut s’entraider et surmonter des obstacles ensemble, on va plus loin et c’est plus amusant !

Jeudi 6 – PMI France Pôle Grenoble – Et si ce qui bloquait dans mon projet venait des émotions ?

« Mon projet n’avance pas comme je voudrais… et pourtant, j’ai tout bien fait : planning, plan d’actions, appui d’un PMO, gouvernance du projet au top, jalons, livrables… et si le facteur bloquant était les émotions ? Quoi ? les émotions que je ressens ? celles des membres de l’équipe projet ? celles des membres du COPIL ? Et il faudrait que je m’en préoccupe ? Franchement, est-ce vraiment le moment ? Et puis, en entreprise, c’est un sujet tabou… »

Pourtant : nous vivons tous des émotions. C’est une des caractéristiques de l’être humain. Quelles soient agréables comme la joie, ou désagréables comme la peur, la colère, la tristesse.

Mardi 11 – PMI – What is Project Oversight and Why it Matters?

Whether you are a project manager or product manager tasked to oversee an outsourced capital project, or an owner investing in a major project critical to the future of your business, you are most likely starting at a disadvantage. A savvy contractor’s project team is likely to be populated with project management professionals who have read an abundance of literature on how to maximize project value for themselves. Unfortunately, little has been written on the best practices for overseeing a project from the client’s perspective. You will gain insight into what is project oversight and why it matters from former Naval Reactors project oversight professionals. This webinar answers the question of how project oversight differs from project management and covers basic principles of project oversight.

Mardi 11 – IIBA Geneva – Centres de gravité: mise en pratique de la stratégie militaire dans l’entreprise

La stratégie vue par des idéalistes dans les livres conceptuels n’aura jamais fait gagner une seule bataille. Elle est avant tout un art issu des combats glorieux de grands guerriers qui ont su imaginer comment arriver à leurs fins par d’habiles manœuvres.

Sun Tzu a été le premier il y a 2500 ans à décrire cet art qui n’a eu de cesse d’évoluer.

La stratégie d’entreprise, elle, n’a qu’à peine 60 ans et peut encore beaucoup apprendre de sa grande sœur.

Si vous souhaitez avoir une image pratique de la stratégie comme le lien entre la vision et l’action opérationnelle, comme la possibilité de définir des modes d’action pour atteindre ses objectifs, vous devriez assister à cette soirée au cours de laquelle je vous montrerai un outil pratique et concret (opérationnel) permettant d’identifier le centre de gravité de votre entreprise et celui de votre concurrence afin de protéger vos vulnérabilités et d’influencer ou cibler celles de votre concurrence sans gaspiller inutilement vos ressources dans le cadre de votre manœuvre commerciale.

Un atelier pratique permettra de mettre en œuvre cet outil, un des piliers de l’art de la stratégie militaire d’aujourd’hui.

Mardi 11 – PMI UK – Ditch, Dump or Delegate?

“If you want a job doing properly, then do it yourself”.

Most of us have said words to this effect at one point or another and delegation is a huge risk for managers, leaders and all parents, but without delegation, the consequences are:

• Under-performing teams who resent the fact you won’t trust them.
• Dis-empowered teams who rely on YOU as the one and only person to put in the extra shifts and take the initiative.
• Stressed out leaders who juggle too many jobs and refuse to delegate because they ‘CAN’T’ (won’t), resulting ultimately in burnt out leaders and job applications elsewhere!
• Under-developed teams, deprived of the opportunity to stretch themselves, try new things, make mistakes and benefit from the learning.

Nobody wins in these scenarios and yet, it is possible (even remotely) to delegate your tasks AND ensure that they get done on time and to the standard you want, whilst also developing your relationship with your delegates and protecting your sanity. You just need to know what NOT to do and what TO do instead.

Mercredi 12 – Gouti – Méthode et outil pour les projets d’une DSI

Mercredi 12 – PMI UK – Will Project Data Analytics Reinvent Risk Management?

Risk management has existed for decades. But how many times do we go back and analyse how many times we got it right? How good were we at managing risk?

We leave a forensic data plume that evaporates, yet it contains a huge amount of insight.

Rather than relying on expert judgement, can we use risk to augment our instinct and counter inbuilt bias? What will the impact of this be on traditional project based risk management roles?

Mercredi 12 – APMG – Change the future of work

The biggest change initiative facing all organizations is the need to devise their future working arrangements. All around us organizations are debating how to maximize the benefits from the temporary changes they adopted at the start of the pandemic, which over a year later have become the new norm. There is greater flexibility of where, when and how we work, with the adoption of new tools and a cultural shift which has seen us bring our whole selves to work.

This practical session will help you to build your capability for managing change so you can help lead this initiative. Presenter and Change Management expert Melanie Franklin will provide a speedy masterclass on how to scope and plan this agile change using three key techniques:

1. End goal to scope to the change
2. Decomposition to create the roadmap
3. Community map to drive collaboration across all stakeholders

Vendredi 21 – PMI – The Agile Enterprise: What is « Agile » Project Management?

Agile remains a hot topic. Started in the late 70s as an alternative to Lean Six Sigma, Agile become popular in the second decade of the 21st Century when Scrum became the de facto Agile delivery framework. Like most popular Agile frameworks, Scrum started as a software product development approach used by a small software development team to build new products. Scrum remains at the core of most Agile frameworks with the Scrum Master role being the flag bearer of any Agile Team. Nowadays, many projects have a software development component and a software development (sub) team.

Bien plus qu’un outil de gestion de projet
	Découvrir l’ERP de gestion de projet

From the Project Management perspective, the Scrum framework doesn’t handle some important project areas like Financial Management, Procurement, and Risk Management; therefore, a Project Manager is still required. The term « Agile Project Management » is widely used these days. Although, most of the time, it refers to small software implementation projects. This webinar is a comparative analysis of various aspects of a project from an Agile Perspective, attempting to define what differentiates an « Agile » Project from a standard project. The webinar will also address skills that the Project Manager needs to acquire or develop and practices that must be avoided when using an adaptive delivery approach.

Mardi 20 – ScrumPulse – The Power of Stories

Stories have a powerful impact on humans. Most of us have a favorite story. This can be a book, a movie, a play, an opera, or something else. We can remember details from stories that surpass most of the facts we can otherwise keep in our mind.

And yet in a professional setting we often use facts to transport information and learning instead of stories. In this webinar, Professional Scrum Trainer Peter Götz will discuss why this is wrong and how it can be improved. He will share where he is using stories and what effects can be achieved when we tell each other stories instead of facts.

In his book « The Professional Scrum Team« , which is a part of the Scrum.org « Professional Scrum » series at Pearson. He and his co-authors consistently use stories to set the stage and illustrate problems throughout the book. The reader can relate this story to their own experience, which makes it easier to understand the importance and point of the message that comes afterwards. Peter is convinced that we can and should use this effect more often and wants to share some ideas on how to do it.

Mardi 20 – PMI Switzerland – An Open Space around the theme of Project Management tools

Things we could address around this theme include:
– How to stay relevant with tools for the job market
– Which tool do you use to share your project’s dashboard or scheduling
– What tools have changed in your organization in the last year and what impact does this have on the portfolio performance
– How do you encourage use of tools when there is a mismatch of maturity level between your experience and your new organisation
