Agile Project Management for Nonprofits501 Commons
Are you looking for ways to remove dysfunctions, waste, and inefficiencies in your non-profit organization? Whether it is a technology or a non-technology project for non-profits, this quick introduction to “Agile” – a modern project management approach can help you get more done more efficiently with full engagement of your team and stakeholders.
In this workshop you will learn how Agile has caused tremendous disruption and innovation in today’s networked global economy and what are the future possibilities. You will specifically learn how to adopt Agile practices to do twice more in less than half the time at your non-profit organization. Agile practices are aimed at responding to changing organizational demands by reducing waste, incorporating program improvements more quickly, and working collaboratively.
Agile is a mindset and it requires a mind shift from individual performance to team progress. It emphasizes the ability to adapt to changes and provide organizations the framework to adapt in a predictable way with a minimal amount of waste, such as from over planning. In Agile, teams incorporate frequent feedback, from both internal and external stakeholders, and work in short iterations, with the goal always to get something viable in front of an individual for feedback. Everyone works as one team to get work done.
Specifically, participants will learn the benefits of Agile, how to become Agile, the role of a team in a scrum environment, and an overview of scrum roles.

Managers want IT to help run the organisation, and that's why approaches like BPR and ERP are so popular. However, some of the most widely used academic research shows that IT doesn't work that way in practice. Half the time it's an arena for horsetrading, and the other half of the time managers are hitting themselves against a brick wall. In this presentation, Duncan Chapple summarises that research.

Working with data is a challenge for many organizations. Nonprofits in particular may need to collect and analyze sensitive, incomplete, and/or biased historical data about people. In this talk, Dr. Cori Faklaris of UNC Charlotte provides an overview of current AI capabilities and weaknesses to consider when integrating current AI technologies into the data workflow. The talk is organized around three takeaways: (1) For better or sometimes worse, AI provides you with “infinite interns.” (2) Give people permission & guardrails to learn what works with these “interns” and what doesn’t. (3) Create a roadmap for adding in more AI to assist nonprofit work, along with strategies for bias mitigation.
