How to Develop your Career In Project Management - Strategies, Tactics and Tools.
Is becoming better at what you do bringing you any closer to what you want to be?
What do I want to be? What do I want to do? Where do I start and what's next?
How do I get there? What's the process? What tools can I use to help me?
Why would anyone want a Career?
One should formulate their own honest definition of success based on their own beliefs, values, wants, capabilities and capacity. A space we would like to live in. An internal perspective and a “reflected” perspective. The value of this space (of success) is subjective. The defined space of success is multidimensional: professional, spiritual, social, financial, and dimensions related to health, family, physical appearance, etc.
Use your Effective Intelligence: Your ability to use your natural and developed capabilities effectively in order to achieve "success".
Effective Intelligence is demonstrated by:
Defining (and continuously refining and evolving) your own honest definition of success.
Acknowledging the multidimensionality of success and the need for trade-offs and productive compromises.
Exhibiting productive self-awareness.
Understanding your constraints and capacity limitations.
Understanding the physics (laws) of the systems you interact with.
Defining a plan on how to achieve success (translate your honest definition of success into goals and actions).
Optimizing (continuously) your plan - finding your Personal Efficient Frontier.
Developing and aligning values, beliefs, mindsets, attitudes, capabilities and goals.
Managing effectively the dynamic nature of life.
Balancing the contribution of both goals and journey.
Learning from the challenges while enjoying the journey.
The more you achieve or the more capable you are, the more is expected from you.

What are the differences between project and program management? How are they similar? What strategies are necessary for a successful transition from one to the other?
This presentation will address those questions and in addition provide practical guide lines and tips to those individuals aspiring be successful program managers as well as organizations that are in transition.
Introduction to Agile Project Planning and Project ManagementMike Cottmeyer
Agile introduces a number of tools and techniques designed to help the team figure out how much software we can build for the time we have, and the amount of money our customer is willing to spend. This talk will introduce the fundamental concepts necessary to break down and estimate our product backlog, how to organize delivery of that backlog for early risk reduction and rapid customer feedback, and how to get stable throughput and predictability as you mature your agile practices. This talk is for those looking to understand how (and why) agile methods lead to better business outcomes.
