Make sure that you manage your business projects, rather than having your projects manage you.
Turn your business goals into reality by dividing them into a series of projects. Projects with a clearly defined end-point. Projects that can be controlled and managed. Projects that succeed.
Equip yourself with the mindset of a project manager, the single-minded focus required to achieve major goals, and the discipline to make sure the small things are not forgotten. Learn how to balance the project management triangle of Scope, Time & Cost.

Learn to Say No and End Your Multitasking (Agile Prague)Johanna Rothman
You have too much work to do, and it’s all must-do, top priority. You know your multitasking is slowing down your work, making you crazy, and making it difficult to deliver your best work. You feel pulled in so many directions it’s difficult to make progress. You can show your work and learn how to say no in a way your managers can understand. You can create your personal project portfolio.
Learn to visualize your project portfolio and ask your manager for help in understanding what you should do first, second, and third. Maybe, even never. Learn how to create a parking lot so people know you’re not ignoring them; you’re not working on their desires now. Learn to have that conversation with your manager so you can say no and stop the multitasking.
Think Big, Plan Small: How to Use Continual PlanningJohanna Rothman
Many agile teams attempt to plan for an entire quarter at a time. Something changes—a better product opportunity, or a product development problem—and the quarter’s plan is not just at risk. That plan is now impossible. Instead of quarterly planning, consider continual planning. Continual planning allows a project or a program to use small deliverables to plan for the near future and rolling waves to replan often to deliver the most value.
Scaling Agile Projects to Programs: Networks of Autonomy, Collaboration and E...Johanna Rothman
Are you trying to scale your agile project to a program, a collection of projects with one strategic objective? If you do what you’ve done with one small project, you’ll get bloat. Instead of bloat or large frameworks, you can use agile and lean approaches to manage your program with small-world networks. Small world networks help each team to remain autonomous, and still collaborate and explore across the program.
The common risks for software programs are how to manage the interdependencies, how to nurture the architecture, how to see the status, and how to release an entire product. When we ask feature teams to collaborate and take responsibility across the organization, the teams can manage many of the interdependency and architecture challenges. With program management, we can see the status and release the entire product.

Converting your Opportunities: Making your Biggest Opportunity for 2015 / 201...Russell Cummings
This webinar is a unique opportunity to gain insights from other business owners and the WLW Team on the strategies required to make your biggest opportunity for 2015 / 2016 a reality.
When you think of hiring for your team, does the paperwork overwhelm you? Are you concerned about the number of interviews you seem to need to make a great decision? Do you ever have trouble making a decision, to know if this candidate is right for you --the team, the project, and the organization?? You know the cost of hiring people is high, and the cost of not getting the right person is even higher.
You can apply agile approaches to your hiring, iterating on everything. You can get feedback as you go, and involve the entire team, including the sourcing. You can teach your recruiters to use a kanban board to track candidates and where they are in the pipeline. You can iterate on the job description (and job ad) based on what you see in candidates. When you involve the entire team, you can create questions and auditions that work for you. You can identify candidates who fit your culture and those who don't.
SharePoint "Moneyball" - The Art and Science of Winning the SharePoint Metric...Susan Hanley
Measurement is not just about looking for a bottom-line result to justify investments. It’s also a tool to provide feedback about where the organization is along the road to successfully leveraging investments in SharePoint and the business outcomes it provides. At every stage in the development of your solution, metrics provide a valuable means for focusing attention on desired behaviors and results. This presentation showcases a practical and realistic framework for SharePoint metrics based on real world examples and successes.

Agile program management: Scaling Collaboration Across the Organization (Agil...Johanna Rothman
You have more than one project team who needs to collaborate with another team. Maybe you only have one technical team and a bunch of other people you need around the organization so you can release. And, you’ve heard of “frameworks” and “discipline” that don’t sound heavyweight, and maybe not so agile. Can you have a larger program and still be agile?
Yes. We already know how to use program management to deliver larger efforts. Agile and lean program management uses small-world networks of collaborative teams to solve problems and deliver features fast. That demands the entire program be agile and lean—to collaborate across the organization. Johanna Rothman shares how to see and use agile roadmaps and create small world networks to create a culture of delivery that works. Help your project teams to become more lean and more agile so that you have working product releases all the time.

Strategic Management: The Ultimate Goal of Strategic Planning Kathy Brandt
Developing a strategic plan is the first step in leading a strategic organization. The efficacy of the plan is judged not by how many goals you achieve, but in how well you utilize the plan to strategically lead your organization. According to the Balanced Scorecard Institute, strategic organizations implement processes to “systematically coordinate and align resources and actions with mission, vision and strategy.”
Crowdsourcing your documentation: Managing a crowdsourced documentation projectSusan Griffin
Crowdsourcing is defined as “the act of taking a function once performed by employees and outsourcing it to an undefined (and generally large) network of people in the form of an open call” (source: "The Rise of Crowdsourcing," June 2006, Wired magazine). If you look online, you’ll find many examples of this concept at work in forums and websites designed expressly for the purpose of shared content creation: Wikipedia, IMDB (internet movie database), and reddit, just to name a few.
What I am talking about here, crowdsourcing a documentation project, is a little bit different. It is document creation that is outsourced to a group of internal users, and project managed by someone with a writing/information architecture background. I would describe this as more of a “controlled crowdsourcing” scenario, with a smaller group of contributors, and contained within a single organization. If you haven’t experienced this yet, chances are that you will, and soon. With more companies needing the writing staff they have to “work smarter and more creatively,” I would argue that this is something we all need to adapt to as professional content creators.

Up the Ratios Bylaws - a Comprehensive Process of Our Organizationuptheratios
Up the Ratios is a non-profit organization dedicated to bridging the gap in STEM education for underprivileged students by providing free, high-quality learning opportunities in robotics and other STEM fields. Our mission is to empower the next generation of innovators, thinkers, and problem-solvers by offering a range of educational programs that foster curiosity, creativity, and critical thinking.
At Up the Ratios, we believe that every student, regardless of their socio-economic background, should have access to the tools and knowledge needed to succeed in today's technology-driven world. To achieve this, we host a variety of free classes, workshops, summer camps, and live lectures tailored to students from underserved communities. Our programs are designed to be engaging and hands-on, allowing students to explore the exciting world of robotics and STEM through practical, real-world applications.
Our free classes cover fundamental concepts in robotics, coding, and engineering, providing students with a strong foundation in these critical areas. Through our interactive workshops, students can dive deeper into specific topics, working on projects that challenge them to apply what they've learned and think creatively. Our summer camps offer an immersive experience where students can collaborate on larger projects, develop their teamwork skills, and gain confidence in their abilities.
In addition to our local programs, Up the Ratios is committed to making a global impact. We take donations of new and gently used robotics parts, which we then distribute to students and educational institutions in other countries. These donations help ensure that young learners worldwide have the resources they need to explore and excel in STEM fields. By supporting education in this way, we aim to nurture a global community of future leaders and innovators.
Our live lectures feature guest speakers from various STEM disciplines, including engineers, scientists, and industry professionals who share their knowledge and experiences with our students. These lectures provide valuable insights into potential career paths and inspire students to pursue their passions in STEM.
Up the Ratios relies on the generosity of donors and volunteers to continue our work. Contributions of time, expertise, and financial support are crucial to sustaining our programs and expanding our reach. Whether you're an individual passionate about education, a professional in the STEM field, or a company looking to give back to the community, there are many ways to get involved and make a difference.
We are proud of the positive impact we've had on the lives of countless students, many of whom have gone on to pursue higher education and careers in STEM. By providing these young minds with the tools and opportunities they need to succeed, we are not only changing their futures but also contributing to the advancement of technology and innovation on a broader scale.

36. Airtable: Looks Like a Spreadsheet | Acts Like a Database
• Airtable is a relational database tool that doubles
as an online collaboration service.

conversation.

individuals might use it to create inventories of
collections they own.
• Airtable is different from older database
management systems because it looks like an app
that anyone with an iPhone could use.

information differently, it makes the tool suitable
for new, collaborative uses.
