Post-Covid Office Environments & Team Structures
Abstract:
Work-from-home and work-from-office are part of our future. With rare exceptions, companies will blend the two concepts to create work environments that enable remote-working and in-person interaction as well. Let's explore recent signals in the market that indicate the most likely scenarios as companies re-engage a post-Covid world of work.Presentation Topic:
How to innovate smarter and build world-changing productsAbstract:
Methodologies such as Lean and Agile have taught us to harness the power of iteration to innovate faster -- we've learned how to drive faster, but our ability to set the destination hasn't kept pace. When we iterate in the absence of a vision and strategy, our products and companies become bloated, fragmented, and driven by irrelevant metrics. They catch “product diseases” which are often fatal to innovation.Scrum.org, CEO and Product Owner

Presentation Topic:
How to Navigate the Messy Connection between Work and Value in your Team
Abstract:
Everyone knows that agile approaches are designed to deliver value. The idea of incremental delivery in pursuit of a mission for customers is fundamental to Scrum and the Agile Manifesto. So why is it so hard to decide on a Sprint Goal? And why, when asked about progress, do people talk about velocity and Story Points? Many Scrum Teams’ reality is that their very reason for being is defined not by value but by work. But what changes when teams and organizations look to value instead of work?Vimeo, Director of Product

P3.express: Minimalism in Project ManagementAbstract:
We keep making our project management systems so complicated that they are not usable anymore. Then, we can't use those structured approaches for managing our projects and instead do it intuitively, which is difficult, expensive, and risky.PMP, SSM, SA

Presentation Topic:
From Chaos to Confident: The 6 Pillars Project Leadership FrameworkAbstract:
Are you overwhelmed by constantly shifting priorities, changing visions and constant interruptions?
Are you spending too much time putting out fires rather than addressing the root cause of the chaos?
What if you could confidently lead your team, boost engagement and accountability, increase your influence to create unstoppable momentum, and accelerate outcomes and results for your organization?
The Six Pillars Project Leadership framework outlines the power skills required to effectively lead teams and projects rather than simply manage them.
During this session, we will review the core capabilities that project leaders need to develop to confidently lead, empower and elevate their teams. You will walk away with clarity on what you need to do to boost your team’s performance in 2021.

Up and down the Deliberately Adaptive Organisation – business agility at every scale
Abstract:
A modern take on a 70's classic, we take some of the tools of modern product and organisation development and plug them into Stafford Beer's Viable System Model, a model that (still) describes organisations of all sizes that have the drive to survive in a changing environment. The result of this exercise will feel remarkably familiar to Lean-Agile eyes, and yet it helps to reveal some of the serious dysfunctions too often experienced with current frameworks, both team-level and larger.MBA-PMP, PMI-ACP®, PMP®, CAPM®

Antifragility is the Vision
Abstract:
As project practitioners, we’re mostly after one thing: project success. But when ill-defined, success can mean something very different, even to members on the same team. Is it possible for project leaders and teams to become stronger, better, and more efficient during change, ambiguity, and chaos? Absolutely. Antifragile team communication can be a first step in the right direction. Innovation for the future will only be as strong and stable as the teams creating such a future. If project leaders are the head, then teams are the heart of project success. Together, let’s discover new ways to inspire high-performing, healthy teams during tough change.OKR.how, Founder

Presentation Topic:
Building with ML – How to develop products that learnAbstract:
Building software that is designed to learn requires a significant mind shift. In this session, Alex goes through the evolution from Agile software process (now 20 years old) that nearly all software development currently uses, to a new AI centric software development process. As the current Founder of SAVVI AI and the former Chief Product Officer, for Synchrony Financials AI enabled Products, much of Alex time was spent managing large and talented teams to implement products that learn. Those products learned to improve personalization, enhance credit decisioning, grow profitability and reduce customer complaints. Alex walks through specific case studies and examples of how to plan for AL/ML in your software, via adding “Learning Stories” into your software process. In this session he will also explain some of the pitfalls and how to overcome them, especially around getting colleagues comfortable that software that learns can be very safe and extremely effective.OhioHealth, Senior Project Manager

Infrastructure Projects – What Makes then Different and Difficult?Abstract:
Many PMO portfolios are over 30% Infrastructure projects. These PMOs want to use Agile for infrastructure projects and realize the benefits of waste reduction, faster turn-around, and better prioritization. This session involves examining a hospital network upgrade using a KANBAN approach. When done, you will have a new network. You will have created stories, used a product backlog, communicated status, transitioned to operations, delivered benefits, and completed a workshop retrospective.World Champion in Project Management

From Project Managers to Strategy Implementation ProfessionalsAbstract:
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. 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 in our competencies.FMR, Enterprise Agile Coach

DYME (Develop Your Model of Entrepreneurship): Evidence-based approaches to finding creativity and innovative solutions to sticky problems.Abstract:
Professor Dobson, will review the futility of current Entrepreneurship Education approaches to actually effectively develop a creative, innovative, and entrepreneurial team. Entrepreneurship is becoming increasingly viewed as a fundamental engine for increasing employment, reducing poverty, and driving economic development. Academic research institutions seek to understand and develop novel methods to effectively develop the next generation of entrepreneurs. However, there is an ever-growing supply of entrepreneurship education (EE) without a corresponding increase in student’s actually starting businesses. There is a growing body of research that identifies that part of the problem resides in the teaching methodologies that are commonly being used as a factor of the ineffectiveness of EE to actually develop entrepreneurs. The problem appears to reside in the use of teaching approaches that rely on theory/process-based approaches that depend on hypothetical business plans, models, and canvases.p3.express, Co-Founder, Trainer & PM Activist
