Talk

Agile Methodologies & PMI

On Thursday March 4th, 2010 at 6:30 PM I’ll be talking for about an hour at the PMI Buenos Aires Chapter monthly members meeting.

The talk is entitled “Agile Methodologies & PMI” which will present the assumptions that shape traditional project management but seen from an agile perspective of time, cost and scope management. Traveling through the processes and PMBOK knowledge areas I’ll show how to adapt them to agile projects. There will also be several PMP tips discussed that any PMP can apply tomorrow to immediately start building an agile culture in their projects. All this will be discussed based on past experiences.

All attending PMP will be able to get 1.5 PDUd accredited (category 3).
