Scaled Agile Framework® PI Plannings in a distributed environment are challenging. Get ideas to be more effective with the right measures and tools for distributed collaboration.
LET'S TALK LEADERSHIP!
As more and more organisations are adopting Agile software development practices, many project managers may be asking themselves how to adapt to this new trend. Becoming a Scrum Master might be the obvious solution, but are there other roles in the Agile frameworks that are suitable for a Project Manager to adopt? Should they become Product Owners?
WHAT YOU WILL LEARN
PALO IT shared its experience in running Agile projects, including the differences between Project Managers, Scrum Masters, and Product Owners. We covered the scope of each role, the required skills and mindsets and how these affect the relationship with the broader development team. We also rovided insight on how to effectively transition from a classical Project Manager role to an Agile one.
Audience
> Project Managers & Senior Managers
> Scrum Masters & Product Owners
> Developers
> HR Professionals
> Anyone with experience of working with a development team.
Slack Platform Community team Bangalore hosted Tiny Spec 2019 on Nov 7th at WeWork Embassy Tech Park. Gregg, Emily and Aman from Slack's platform team were present to announce the launch of new features for developers building Slack apps.
This was followed by a Slack bot development workshop by Ronak from Anaek followed by a talk by Raj from Troopr on how to use the recent App Home paradigm to redesign your existing app.
To help teams make effective day-to-day decisions that support Lean-Agile principles, we’ve created a simple yardstick at LeanKit called FSGD — Frequent, Small, Good, Decoupled.
Easy to remember and apply, “Fizz Good” is a way of breaking down work that reduces the need for cross-team scheduling, estimation and coordination. The results? Faster delivery of customer value.
In this webinar, Daniel Norton, co-founder and Chief Mobile Officer at LeanKit, explains how FSGD can help your organization and how to get started.
Agile software development has formally been around since 2001. However, the spirit of Agile has been with us since we started doing stuff together. Working with each other, collaborating with customers and responding to change (see Agile Manifesto) are all core to Agile, but are also the mantra of a polite society.
We will discuss how Agile principles can be used for GIS projects and requests. We will exhibit how Scrum can be used to manage project requirements and tasks. We will even cover how to estimate or size work to be done.
The presentation will examine Agile/Scrum in progress. We’ll demonstrate how we manage effort and each other. What has improved since going Agile? What still needs work? And finally, why this works for GIS and government agencies.

We live in a world where limited resources is a constant battle. One of the biggest struggles is how to get work done and make sure that it brings the most value possible to our customer. Managing GIS work through Scrum provides a way to do this. In this presentation, I will explain the concepts around the Agile methodology and how it could be applied not only in the IT world, but to any GIS work that needs to be done.
Kickass Agile Development - Agile & Beyond ConferenceDan Chuparkoff
Watch Dan Chuparkoff as he shares some of the secrets to kick-ass software development at Atlassian. He gives us a glimpse at a new Agile paradigm. Feedback cycles are short, code quality is awesome, and customers get the features they lust after. Hear how Atlassian uses pull-requests for better code quality; collaborates fast to develop ideas; avoids meetings; tightens feedback loops to fail fast; shortens release cycles and work together happily from different corners of the globe. Sound like paradise? It is!
A presentation by full-stack agile on some of the myths regarding the Agile framework. There are important questions such as benefits, documentation, scalability, architecture, planning and discipline.
Do engineering teams have to be static? Could you form them, disband them or adjust their composition on a regular cadence to adapt to business needs? Could you go as far as letting your engineers decide themselves what to work on while keeping everyone aligned?
Would it be a recipe for disaster? Or would it give you the flexibility to work on what has the highest business impact while increasing engagement and developing your future leaders?
In this talk, I'll describe how my team adopted self-selection and self-organisation and how we scaled those practices to 60 people. I'll share with you our recipe to:
- Successfully plan quarters when managers can't assign engineers to projects anymore,
- Engage with stakeholders,
- Set constraints to encourage positive behaviour,
- Create alignment and track progress through OKRs.
You will leave with a renewed understanding of what Agile means at its core!

Agile From the Top Down: Executives & Leadership Living Agile by Jon StahlLeanDog
I believe that executives must practice what they preach. If they want teams to be transparent and agile, they need to practice themselves and lead by example. This talk will share some Agile & Lean techniques, applied in a new way, to help organizations understand their constraints so they can transparently carry forward their journey to becoming Agile. “Seeing the Whole” includes customers, projects, applications, people, leadership, financials and Standard Work. We will propose creating a BVR (Big (I mean big) Visual Room), refactoring the PMO and suggest some practices to help support this journey. Executives are challenged to lead by example and be transparent. - Jon Stahl

Project Management as an Art Form (DrupalCon Chicago 2011)Phase2
From DrupalCon Chicago 2011, Nicole Lind joins Joel Sackett and colleagues from other top agencies to discuss approaches to managing enterprise-level Drupal projects.
Questions answered by this session
Question 1: How does PM involvement impact the various phases of a project and the organization... and should it?
Question 2: How do you say "No" to the wrong type of work and still keep a positive client relationship?
Question 3: How do you partner with clients to ensure the project needs are met?
Question 4: Are there differences in managing Drupal projects versus other technology projects?
Question 5: What are some shared tools to help navigate the questions being answered in this session?
At Jazkarta, our Plone projects typically consist of a mix of custom functionality and theming. The client's budget is usually fixed and their requirements are imperfectly defined at the start of the project. This cries out for an agile, iterative approach, however our development environment is not what most agile experts would recommend. No one is co-located - our clients are remote and our developers are distributed, and they are not working full time on a single project.
Sally Kleinfeldt describes Jazkarta's approach to managing a Plone website development project in an agile fashion, with a part time, distributed team. Topics include roles, scheduling, estimation, and project management tools.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
