Monday, March 22, 2010 Lean & Agile Project Management: For Large-Scale Programs and Projects Presented by Dr. David F. Rico, PMP, CSM
Lunch Meeting (Columbia, MD)— SOLD OUT!
Dr. Rico will discuss how Agile Methods can be used for managing high-risk, time-sensitive R&D-oriented new product development (NPD) projects with demanding customers and fast-changing market conditions. Dr. Rico will establish the context, provide a definition, and describe the value-system for lean and agile project management. He’ll provide a brief survey of popular lean and agile project management approaches, describe a step-by-step methodology, and illustrate the mechanisms for scaling the lean and agile project management model up to large-scale, distributed projects. Real options analysis will also be used to demonstrate how the lean and agile project management model optimizes business value.
