Event Description

Choosing your Way of Working

Join Scott W. Ambler, MS, vice president and chief scientist of Disciplined Agile at Project Management Institute, for an informative presentation on the value of the Disciplined Agile tool kit and how to use it in practice with guided continuous improvement (GCI) across your entire organization.

The DA toolkit is the world’s only comprehensive agile body of knowledge that provides straightforward and practical guidance to help individuals, teams, and enterprises choose their way of working in a context-specific way. This guided continuous improvement is effectively a Kaizen loop on steroids.

Agenda

  • Introduction
  • How to choose the appropriate life cycle for the situation that we face. Should we take a Scrum-based approach, a SAFe approach, a lean/Kanban-based approach, a continuous delivery approach, or an exploratory/lean startup approach?
  • What practices should the team adopt? How do they fit together? When should we apply them?
  • What artifacts should the team create? When should they be created? To what level of detail?
  • How do we evolve our WoW as we experiment and learn, or as our environment changes around us?
