Agile and Uncertainty Management: the impact this has on the Organisational Operating Model, Governance, and the Agile Process

Thu, Sep 3, 2015 12:30 PM - 1:15 PM BST

Background

A common issue is for organisations to seek certainty early in the planning cycle (from business planning through to project planning), driven by a desire to know exactly what will be delivered, and when. This ultimately leads to sub-optimal decision making, increased risk, and an increase in up-front work. It is a frequent cause of frustration between Agile development teams and the businesses they serve.   In this webinar Rob will discuss how our understanding of uncertainty and its resolution is key to achieving  optimum project delivery, good governance, and effective project funding models.
