The principles of Agile will continue to be a focus for PMOs throughout 2018. Organizations are looking for more flexible ways of working to optimize speed and improve delivery. Like traditional Project Management, there is a triple constraint to consider when developing or transforming your Agile PMO: People, Process and Technology. Many businesses are struggling to find the right balance between governance, control and agility. Adopting this new way of thinking doesn’t mean you must sacrifice oversight or welcome chaos. We now know that a step by step guide to delivery doesn’t work; we also know that giving up control doesn’t have to mean costly failures. So, what do you need to consider when building a modern PMO?
Join us in this webinar as we walk you through the top trends in Agile transformation for 2018. If you are looking for a PMO that delivers quality with speed, resulting in competitive edge, we’ll show you how to deliver with innovative and relevant productivity solutions by providing the technology that aligns to the work, and the people that practice it. Topics include:
• What is Agile Transformation?
• What does it mean for today’s PMO?
• Bimodal PMO – the benefits
• Transformation trends to consider
• How to assess for readiness
• Technology requirements
• Agile best practices
• Finding the right people – the key to transformation success
