Presentation Overview:
The popularity of Agile methodologies has grown significantly in recent years – so much so that PMI has even added an Agile-PM certification.
This presentation will provide attendees an overview of Agile methodologies geared for Project Managers, delivered by someone who has ‘been there, done that’ as a PM and software developer. Expect to learn what the Agile methodology is, and how it differs from a more traditional approach.
Note: This is the first of a 2-part series on Agile methodologies and implications to how we manage projects. We hope you can join us for both sessions, but each session will be valuable on its own (if you can only make one).
LeanDog is located in Cleveland, helping organizations with Agile transformations, software delivery, and training. See http://leandog.com/ for more info.
