Find ways to use explicit buffers to make project schedules more predictable and faster. In the past, the only way to make schedules dependable was to stretch the schedule. By applying some ideas from Critical Chain Project Management, you can make schedules both more dependable and faster.

Project Controls Expo

Liberating your Teams from Rigid Scope and Date Agreements Q: Do you start initiatives in a complex domain by attempting to answer “what are we going to deliver and when”? Q: Do internal stakeholders negotiate a scope and date agreement with development and then expected teams to keep “on track” to deliver the agreed deliverables by the agreed date? Q: Do developers cut corners in order to achieve this? In this session we will explore how the scope and date-based “Contract Game” is misaligned with Agile as well as Scrum. Also how game theory can help us raise awareness how this competitive game results in many negative outcomes when reality does not go to plan (inevitable in a complex domain). This damage is often unrecognised because it is experience by a different group of people, often much later. We will also outline how to lead your organisation to the co-operative game aligned with Agile methods. This includes at least 7 specific techniques. You can expect to walk away with new language and a practical Scrum-based approach for eliminating the Contract Game so that empiricism and agility can thrive.

Cloud computing is #1 on Gartner’s top ten technologies for 2012. How much do you know about this disruptive technology? We’ll take a look at cloud computing in the context of Human Capital Management, and especially as it pertains to Workforce Management and Scheduling, where the cloud computing case is particularly compelling. We’ll define the aspects of cloud computing that are pertinent to you. Next, we’ll look at decision criteria. Is your organization a fit for cloud based WFM? After that comes implementation.We’ll cover the characteristics of these projects, and let you know what to watch out for. Lastly, what should you expect in terms of ongoing benefits?

Unleashing the power of Scrum and Kanban together - Best of Both Worlds!!

Micro Everything - Our Road to Scale

Ahmad Assaf

The core of the practice of Agile is the delivery of individual projects; it's where most practitioners start out, and it fundamentally changes the way a project team works together and works with their stakeholders. Scrum is one of the most popular Agile delivery approaches at the moment. In this APN session, Carolyn uses one of her recent projects as a way to illustrate each facet of Scrum and how it panned out in real life, from start to finish.

Architecture in an Agile World

This is a presentation I gave at the Central Indiana MPUG September 2012 meeting. Abstract: There are many commonly held myths about agile. Two of these myths are that agile projects don’t do any planning and that you can’t do agile on a fixed date project. In this presentation we will disprove these two myths by exploring just how agile planning is accomplished and how you can not only use agile on fixed date projects but also improve your accuracy and consistency in hitting those dates with agile.

Video & Slides: http://www.proformative.com/events/reducing-risk-dynamic-environment-cloud-0 Understanding and effectively managing financial and operational risk exposures is a challenge faced by companies of all sizes. Finance leaders are increasing taking ownership of risk management at their companies in addition to taking on more direct leadership of company growth initiatives. Discover how Finance leaders from fast-growing start-ups to the Fortune 500 are turning to the Cloud to help them identify, mitigate, and manage dynamic risk exposures across the enterprise, and allowing them to focus more on driving company growth and shareholder value. This webinar will feature a case study detailing how one company has successfully leveraged the cloud in elevating the effectiveness of its risk management programs while subsequently driving successful growth initiatives.

Reducing Risk in a Dynamic Environment with the Cloud

It is common during times of economic downturn and uncertainty for businesses to reduce headcount in order to save money. Sound logic as workplace productivity typically increases during economic downturn. However the PMO can become challenged as under-staffed projects can lead to missed deliverables, costly delays or at worst, complete project failure. The reality of the PMO is that the most cost-effective solution is to ensure appropriate and adequate resources are allocated before commencing any project.

In our research paper titled "Qualitative Analysis on Tax Evasion and Reasons for Reluctance to Join ATL in Pakistan," we delve into the intricate dynamics of tax compliance and explore the underlying reasons why individuals in Pakistan might hesitate to become a part of the Active Taxpayer List (ATL) within the framework of business law and taxation. With a multidisciplinary approach, our team of five researchers embarked on an in-depth exploration of tax evasion behaviors and the factors influencing them. Through qualitative analysis, we aimed to unravel the complex interplay of socio-economic, cultural, and institutional factors shaping tax compliance attitudes among Pakistani taxpayers. Drawing on a diverse range of qualitative research methods, including interviews, focus groups, and content analysis, we gathered rich insights from a diverse sample of individuals representing various sectors of the economy. By immersing ourselves in the lived experiences and perceptions of taxpayers, tax advisors, and legal experts, we uncovered nuanced perspectives on tax evasion practices and attitudes toward ATL membership. Our findings highlight the multifaceted nature of tax evasion in Pakistan, shedding light on both the motivations driving non-compliance and the barriers to ATL enrollment. From perceived inefficiencies in the tax system to cultural norms and trust deficits in governmental institutions, our research identifies a myriad of factors contributing to tax evasion behavior and reluctance to join ATL. Furthermore, our study offers valuable implications for policymakers, tax authorities, and business stakeholders seeking to enhance tax compliance and foster a culture of transparency and accountability in Pakistan's taxation landscape. By addressing the underlying drivers of tax evasion and promoting the benefits of ATL membership, policymakers can design more effective strategies to broaden the tax base and promote sustainable economic development. In conclusion, our research paper represents a comprehensive endeavor to deepen our understanding of tax compliance dynamics in Pakistan and elucidate the complexities surrounding ATL enrollment. By unraveling the intricacies of tax evasion behaviors and attitudes, we hope to contribute to informed policymaking and foster a culture of tax compliance and integrity in Pakistan's business and taxation environment.
