Acting agile, instead of ineffective and unsuccessful project-management

Acting agile, instead of ineffective and unsuccessful project-management

Initial situation

Analyses of success rates of project-management show a clear picture: two thirds of all projects fail completely, or only partially reach the desired goal.  Classic project-management with a specification book, stage-gate-process and project-structure-plan fails miserably in a complex and fast-moving environment. It gets increasingly difficult for yourself and your employees, to stay highly motivated, to lead target-oriented and create a positive team-spirit.

 Goals of the seminar acting agile

New surroundings require also new competences from project-managers and project-employees, Its important for participants to get ready for ‘agility’ of projects. The topics are:

• What basic mindsets or attitudes does ‘agile-action’ require?

• What agile methods and thought-patternsare available for working on projects, and how can you integrate these into an existing environment?

• Which new roles and responsibilities are needed in agile projects, and which human factors have enormous influence on the success of the project?
