- Using Lifecycles to Design Your Projects
If you're starting your agile journey, I recommend a couple of days of project jump start to make sure you can make these ideas work. (If you've started and you're having trouble, let's discuss whether training, a retrospective, an assessment or a jump-start is the most suitable solution.)
For people who need to manage more than one project or the project portfolio:
- Program Management (for program managers and project managers)
- Managing the Project Portfolio (for the leadership team making project portfolio decisions)
A new workshop: Designing the Agile Organization is for managers who have agile teams working well, and know the management structures need to change, but are not sure what structure makes the best change.
For people who are involved in hiring:
- Hiring the Best Knowledge Workers, Techies & Nerds
- Hiring for an Agile Team
