| 10:55 The Agile Project Manager: Oxymoron or new corporate hero? |
|
Agile is hot. In these challenging times Agile approaches promise quick results at low cost. It is the Scrum Master who inspires Agile Teams in their pursuit for superior delivery. Who is this Scrum Master? A Project Manager in a new jacket? An improved 2.0 version of the PM, focusing mainly on the Soft Skills? The person reporting to the ‘real’ Project Manager? Or rather the villain who makes the Project Manager redundant? What about Agile itself anyway? Does it deliver real value or is it just the latest fad? Learning goals: After this presentation, the audience should understand how a Project Manager can avoid the pitfalls of an Agile project approach and how he/she can maximize the added value of the pivotal role a Project Manager plays in this kind of environment. |
