Being Agile in Business - :Leadership - Agile Business Conference 2015 Belinda Waldock
Being Agile in Business – Belinda Waldock
Session Type: Presentation
Session Length: 45 minutes
Target Audience & Level of Experience: Leaders and all roles involved in driving Agile in an organisation
Session Description: In order to become a truly agile organisation its people must embrace and apply agile thinking at every level of the business. The primary driver for successful agile adoption within a business is the level of buy in achieved amongst its teams. It is not enough to implement structures and tools into day to day practices, the organisation must learn to listen to what agile tells them and act upon it in order to sustain buy in both to the method and their commitment to the ambitions of the business. Belinda shares her experience of introducing agile to an array of SME businesses from project management through to improving the strategic agility of their business models to evoke growth. The session will report on their journeys of adoption and the impact upon people and interactions within those businesses. She will explore what worked well, what could work better, what barriers they faced and the results achieved sharing case studies and the new tools and materials adapted from agile that create a Business Management methodology for Business Agility

App Modernization with .NET Core: How Travelers Insurance is Going Cloud-NativeVMware Tanzu
At Travelers Insurance, a decade old rating engine was still on the mainframe, making it difficult to scale, expensive to run, and reliant on a shrinking pool of skilled engineers. Rating engines are fundamental to the insurance quoting process, and at the very heart of the business. It was time to modernize and take advantage of the scalability, stability, automation and fast iteration cycles made possible by cloud-native architecture.
In this webinar, Viraj Naik of Travelers Insurance and Rohit Kelapure of Pivotal will take us on their journey from mainframe to microservices. Viraj and Rohit will describe how they built a distributed, event-driven rating engine with .NET Core on Pivotal Platform using Steeltoe, running on Linux stem cells. The new rating engine exceeded SLAs and reduced time to production to under 60 minutes.
You’ll learn the keys to a successful mainframe rewrite-based modernization, including:
● A pragmatic, domain-driven approach and phased delivery, including implementing a strangler pattern and anti-corruption layers.
● How to port business objects and business rules from mainframe to .NET.
● New innovations developed and delivered during the migration process.
Speakers:
Viraj Naik, Lead Solutions Architect at Travelers Insurance
Rohit Kelapure, Principal Solution Architect at Pivotal

Five Year Report Presentation to Oregon Energy Facility Siting CouncilThe Climate Trust
The Climate Trust, a mission-driven nonprofit that specializes in climate solutions, delivered a presentation on the findings of their five year performance report to the Oregon Energy Facility Siting Council (EFSC); the body responsible for overseeing The Trust’s activities on behalf of regulated energy facilities. In addition to performance metrics, the report provides insight into policy and carbon market trends that impact the work of The Trust, and offers lessons learned from years of managing this carbon price based standard.
Capital Power has implemented Unifier as our Project Control's tool for $500,000 to $2 billion construction projects. What is different about our implementation is that we use Unifier to collect quantity of work (e.g. km of roads) and the hours of labour involved. This information is very important in understanding productivity on a project and in estimating future projects. We are using Unifier on our first project, Genesee 4/5 a gas turbine plant with a construction budget of $1.5 billion. We also leverage the power of Oracle integration across EBS, P6 and Unifier to eliminate rekeying and avoidance of potential errors. Direct input by contractors of progress information also saves time.

Adani SEBI investigation revealed that the latter had sought information from five foreign jurisdictions concerning the holdings of the firm’s foreign portfolio investors (FPIs) in relation to the alleged violations of the MPS Regulations.

Understanding User Needs and Satisfying ThemAggregage
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs
