Old sayings might not be the first thing which comes to mind when considering agility, there are many proverbs which are apropos. Two heads are better than one (or the similar Maasai proverb “One head cannot hold all wisdom.”) : I’ve found this saying to be useful when presenting pair programming. Prefacing an introduction of the practice with this saying helps as people will generally agree with its merits so they are more likely to be receptive to the concept of non solo work

How do you get a quick overview of what is happening on your project? When deadlines seem to be zooming past at a frightening rate, and this is only one of several projects you are juggling at the same time, it can feel like you don’t have a grip on what’s happening on your project. You are not alone! Many project managers I speak to talk about how hard it is to stay on top of what really matters.

"When trying to teach someone a boundary, they learn less from the enforcement of the boundary and more from the way the boundary was established." - Bryant H. McGill. A few months ago we looked at how teams can optimize flow across the Sprint boundary , a technique which is founded on their ability to make limited and sustainable commitments. To recap: not all of the work a team plans into its Sprint Backlog necessarily has to relate to the Sprint Goal and the commitment to that goal which team

Feeling out of shape? Switching from a spreadsheet to social media doesn’t count as exercise at work. Taking a bathroom break doesn’t count as an aerobic workout, either. The truth is you sit in a car to get to most jobs, where you spend the day tethered to a desk. That might be good for your financial well-being, but it can wreak havoc on your mental and physical health.

Over the past decade, companies have embraced innovation with enthusiasm—Chief Innovation Officers have been hired, and in-house incubators, accelerators, and co-creation labs have been launched. CEOs have spoken with passion about “making everyone an innovator” and the need “to disrupt our own business.” But after years of experimentation, senior leaders are asking: Is this still just an experiment, or are we in it for the long haul?

I am occasionally asked by learners in my project management fundamental classes which is the most important knowledge area in the PMBOK® framework. My usual response is to say that each knowledge area is important but the emphasis and level of effort spent on each will be vary depending on the specific context of a given project. But if I was forced to choose one PMBOK® knowledge area to recognize over all others, it is Project Stakeholder Management.

There are few things that impact your productivity, creativity, happiness, and career trajectory like building solid routines and habits.

In today’s digital age, it’s difficult to stay focused and avoid distractions. With so many different social media platforms and always having something extra to do, you’re bound to lose track. This has a direct impact on your productivity, which is why the question of how to be more productive always stays relevant.

We've all seen it. The Scrum Team that goes through the motions, implements all the mechanics of Scrum, and still when we look at what's going on it doesn't feel right. Steve Porter fondly named it Believably Bad Scrum. I call it Scrum Theater. Barry and Christian call it Zombie Scrum. There are many names for this because every experienced Scrum practitioner has seen it way too often. .

The mind is the instrument we use to perceive and process reality, but sometimes it can’t be trusted to act on its best behalf. How can we trust ourselves and our senses to lead us accurately and without bias? That’s an issue everyone must face, both personally and professionally. To improve our decision-making, let’s just focus on one issue that can stymie our perception, confirmation bias.

At the start of our vacation, we had one stop en route to our final destination. We were supposed to have a two hour layover, but after landing we learned that our outbound flight would be delayed by another hour. As the end of that extra hour drew near we were informed that our flight would be delayed by a further two hours. While we were dismayed by these successive delays, I enquired and learned that the cause was a mechanical problem with the plane we were supposed to have departed on, hence

I have read numerous articles on ‘How to Manage a Project’ and ‘How to Become a Project Manager’. There were listicles too, but both of these areas are two separate schools of thought. Career-wise, project management, and a general manager role jobs have intertwined paths. Most of the blog post on this subject matter missed the point. The websites that I went through illicit too many details that are crucial to helping out prospective individuals on the internet.

The secret to scrum is simplicity, even in the face of complexity. And although scrum is simple at heart, it can be difficult to master. Scrum requires self-organizing teams that can quickly solve problems in unpredictable environments. In order to provide transparency and regular communication in the midst of such environments, scrum ceremonies are held.

Dear Elizabeth: There are people in my team who don’t pull their weight. They don’t deliver what they say they will, and they don’t seem committed to the goals of the project. I need them to step up and do what’s required, but I can’t seem to make that happen. Instead, rather than let them derail the project, I find myself doing extra work (their work) to keep the project on track.

Great ideas remain beautiful hypotheticals if there isn’t a way to implement them. Think of the idea as the inspiration, and the organization of that idea as the work required to actualize it. But that work isn’t a one-time activity, of course: it’s a process that flows from one task to the next. There are many points along that journey, from the idea to the execution to the customer.
