As a new project manager, I remember being excited but a little nervous at the same time. Would the team respect me even though I am new to the profession?

Most innovation work proceeds independently from company strategy. As a result, the products that arrive in the market are not well aligned with the company’s goals. This challenge is particularly significant in organizations with transformation-oriented strategies, where innovation must directly support growth, scalability, and strategic pivots. In this session, we will discuss why innovation in large companies is so often not aligned with the company’s strategy and what innovation leaders, pro

Let me tell you about the time I missed a key stakeholder during a project. She rang me on the day the project went live, unsurprisingly upset that I had not consulted her. The deliverable we’d created did affect her team, and no one had bothered to tell her. Oops. So I know firsthand that stakeholder registers can be really useful tools to ensure everyone is identified and bought into the project at the most appropriate times.

When managing multiple projects, it’s critically important to put your effort into the most essential work for the moment. In multi-project management, you don’t treat projects one by one; you have to manage the whole multi-project environment with all its tasks, milestones, and due dates, and set priorities accordingly. However, determining the right priorities can be challenging in the constant flow of tasks and projects.

One of the biggest reasons agile fails to take root inside these organizations is resistance or hesitation from their executive teams. Executives are under immense pressure to ensure their organizations’ stability, profitability, and growth. Their hesitation toward Agile often comes from a place of caution, rooted in a preference for traditional methods that provide clear metrics and established processes.

In short, a post-implementation review is a process to evaluate whether the objectives of the project were met. You can also use it to see how effectively the project was managed. This helps to avoid making similar mistakes with future projects and learn how to run the project better. Post-implementation review is the last step in your project cycle and usually involves an independent party, which can act more objectively in making their determinations about how the project was run.

Complexity stands in the way of application agility. At its core, a complex system creates a fear of change. Once that fear takes hold, organizations and engineering teams mitigate it by adding layers of processes to ensure quality. This results in a development culture where code is only ever added, not changed or removed, to avoid the risk of unintended bugs.
