The document discusses the Project Management Institute's views on agile and lean methods. It notes that while companies are unfamiliar with agile practices, agile uses self-managing techniques and effective communication. Within the PMI, some believe agile is only for software development, not general project management. However, agile proponents are creating a community within PMI to improve traditional practices. Both agile and lean methods aim to reduce unnecessary overhead and focus on efficiency.

Implement cobit in your organization
The document outlines the basic process for implementing COBIT in an organization. It involves 7 steps: 1) identifying drivers and pain points, 2) assessing the current state, 3) defining the target state, 4) developing an implementation plan, 5) executing the plan, 6) realizing benefits, and 7) sustaining momentum. Key lessons include ensuring buy-in from senior management, dealing with resistance to change, focusing on people adoption over infrastructure, and clearly communicating benefits which may be difficult to measure initially. Risk mitigation requires prioritizing challenges and developing plans to address them such as lack of skills or resources.
IT Process Strategy
The document outlines an IT process strategy that aims to integrate IT processes with key business areas by supporting process leaders with tools and expertise. It will use CobiT as the overall control and linkage framework, leveraging best practices from other frameworks like CMMI, ITIL, and PMBOK. The strategy involves teaming with the business, using industry standards and best practices, and establishing an accelerated and rolling deployment approach to fix critical processes and develop automated solutions. It provides a roadmap from 2008-2012 that focuses on obtaining commitment, establishing process leadership and the CobiT framework, benchmarking results, and improving processes to ultimately achieve world-class performance.

The document discusses the Agile approach and its core values and principles. The Agile Manifesto outlines four foundational values: prioritizing individuals and interactions over processes; working software over comprehensive documentation; customer collaboration over contract negotiation; and responding to change over following a plan. It also describes 12 supporting Agile principles focused on frequent delivery of working software, collaboration, and responding to changing requirements. The overall goal is to guide the development of high-quality software through a flexible people-centric approach.
Lean for leaders
Lean management focuses on creating a culture of continuous improvement through lean thinking and leadership behaviors. Lean thinking emphasizes respect for people and daily improvement through tools like gemba walks and hoshin kanri. Leaders must sustain lean implementations by influencing behaviors that drive culture over time. At strategic levels, leaders provide governance and oversight through groups like LSO. At tactical levels, managers use standardized processes and visual controls for daily accountability. Leaders must prevent backsliding by reinforcing lean behaviors, looking for issues on gemba walks, and remembering that broken processes rather than people cause problems.
ATH2013- Mohan - Leadership for Lean Teams
Lean leadership requires adopting lean thinking behaviors and structures. Lean thinking focuses on continuous improvement through a culture of leadership. Key behaviors include gemba walks, hoshin kanri (policy deployment), and respect for people. Structures include leaders at strategic, functional, and tactical levels. At each level, leaders influence behaviors to drive culture change slowly over time. Leaders must reinforce lean principles, value streams, accountability, and focus on processes. They adopt a 3-step approach of going to gemba, observing processes, and talking to people. The focus is on leading innovation, collaboration, and problem-solving to prevent backsliding and ensure continuous improvement.

Innovation process gets reinvigorated
One of the world’s largest household and professional appliances companies based in Sweden designed a strategic innovation process that was implemented across the organization.
The purpose of this process was to coordinate inter departmental efforts in innovation, ensuring a smooth workflow that would take ideas to an end-user goods.
Over time, the departments within the company had begun to adopt their own individual practices. These did not mesh well with each other or with the overall strategic process.
The management decided it was time for reevaluation and this is where Googol came into the picture.

Agile PMO vs. Traditional PMO_ Pros and Cons.pdf
In today's fast-paced business environment, organizations face constant pressure to deliver projects successfully while maintaining a competitive edge. Project Management Offices (PMOs) play a crucial role in ensuring effective project management, and there are two main approaches: Agile PMO and Traditional PMO. Each approach has its own set of pros and cons that organizations must consider when implementing project management practices. In this article, we will explore the key differences between Agile PMO and Traditional PMO, highlighting their respective advantages and disadvantages.
ETPM3
This document discusses key challenges that organizations face when adapting agile methodologies. It outlines 7 main challenges: having no clear plan for agile adaptation; believing training is enough without coaching; lack of committed agile coaches; expecting revolutionary changes immediately; viewing openness as a threat; lack of self-discipline and teamwork; and communication gaps within the organization. The document provides an overview of agile methodology and principles and recommends a phased change management approach when transitioning to agile in order to address challenges and have a successful transformation.
Tackling ITIL Implementation Challenges
This document discusses challenges that organizations face when implementing ITIL (Information Technology Infrastructure Library) frameworks. It identifies eight key sources of challenges: 1) lack of senior management commitment, 2) difficulties managing organizational changes, 3) implementing the wrong scope, 4) insufficient competency of IT staff, 5) poor project methodology and governance, 6) weak management of communication, 7) failure to consider all stakeholders, and 8) low quality of any consultancy firms involved.

Managing Business Analysis for Agile Development
This document discusses the impact of agile development methodologies on the role of business analysts. It explains that in agile projects, requirements are defined collaboratively by business analysts, developers, testers and product owners working together incrementally. The business analyst facilitates discussions to help translate user needs into technical requirements. Some new skills required for business analysts in agile include facilitation, coaching and writing user stories. The document also discusses how business analysts can help transition conventional projects to more agile approaches.
Paradigm Shift for Project Managers in Agile Projects
This document discusses the paradigm shift needed for project managers in agile projects. It explains that traditional project management roles focused on rigid control and planning, which does not fit with agile methodologies that emphasize flexibility, iteration, and customer collaboration. The document argues that in agile projects, the project manager's role should shift from "taskmaster" to leader. As a leader, the project manager focuses on goals, teamwork, removing obstacles, and adapting to change rather than strict control and documentation. This allows the development team to self-organize their work while the manager provides high-level guidance to help ensure success.

PMO Kick-Off Presentation
The document discusses establishing a project management office (PMO) and outlines several key points:
1. It describes different PMO models and maturity levels, noting that there is no "one size fits all" solution and a PMO must be tailored to an organization's needs.
2. Benefits of a PMO include completing more projects on time and on budget, improved access to project information, and greater organizational satisfaction.
3. Common reasons why PMO implementations fail include lack of buy-in, not demonstrating value, being seen as too authoritative, and not addressing required cultural changes.
4. To be successful, a new PMO must establish recognizable value quickly and avoid being perceived as

The new lean
The document discusses new themes in applying Lean principles within banking and financial institutions. It notes that high cost pressures have pushed these organizations to seek more efficient tools like Lean. While Lean was gaining traction in other industries, many banking implementations were ineffective, with only 2% achieving desired results. Successful deployments focused on customers, sustainable long-term implementation across all functions, and embracing change. In contrast, most saw limited benefits due to siloed, process-focused efforts with little follow-through. The document outlines evolving Lean themes, including incorporating it throughout the operating model, using data to drive decisions, innovating beyond waste removal, and establishing Lean as a cultural change rather than just projects.
What Is A Methodology By Mark Walker
This document discusses methodologies for IT project management. It defines a methodology as a framework for structuring, planning, and controlling information system development or maintenance. The document examines different types of methodologies for project management and support divisions within an IT department. It recommends adopting an established industry standard methodology like PRINCE2 or PMBoK and customizing it to an organization's needs. Project management methodologies are important but should be used alongside other methodologies from disciplines like development.
Manage an Agile Portfolio
Agile renders traditional project portfolio metrics useless. The main steering lever used to be end dates; with Agile, the main lever is scope.
Executives and business stakeholders still expect traditional commitments and deadlines, not “sprints” and “velocity.”
Project portfolio management (PPM) could barely stay current with traditional projects on a quarterly basis - the challenge is even greater with Agile projects that change every two weeks.
Further complicating things, Agile will not completely replace traditional or waterfall projects. Most portfolios include a mix of projects.
Critical Insight
The traditional portfolio has defined success based on the quality of prediction: who will deliver what, when, and at what cost? The long-term value of the work was less important than the accuracy of those predications.
Project agility should help drive business agility, assuming that the portfolio is itself Agile.
Portfolio management and project management are separate concerns. The portfolio management methodology needs to interface with projects (and vice versa) but they have distinct goals, terminology, and methodology.
Impact and Result
Increase frequency of current reporting to at least biweekly using an Agile Portfolio Dashboard.
Tailor the process to your organization with either an “engaged” or “abstracted” approach. The engaged approach requires stakeholders to frequently interact with project teams to manage and refine scope. The abstracted approach is more traditional, with projects steered largely through high-level budgeting and resource allocation.
Business Agility is the new competitive advantage!
Being agile is an inherent trait of all start-ups. With a small cross-functional team that are close to their customers they can; implement new ideas quickly, scale rapidly, challenge industry leaders and increasingly come out victorious. In our digital world, it is no longer the big fish that eats the small fish, it is the fast fish that eat the slow.
Join Jamie as he explains how adopting the 7 Principles of Business Agility can enable larger and slower organisations to make the shift towards a ‘more agile’ operating model that can help you keep up with the competition.
