Since the advent of the Internet the world is progressing at an astonishing pace. The market is changing in a breath. The opportunity is missing with hesitance. Under such a fast changing environment, only the agile ones can survive. Agility differentiates success from failure, and profit from loss. Agile project management (APM) is created in this context and its adoption is exponentially growing from software industry to other industries, from small interest group to international enterprises, from private companies to government agencies, and from US to the whole world. The paradigm of project management is shifting from document-driven to value-driven. That is, the success of project management is defined by how quick you can deliver value to your customer rather than how complete your project documents are.
Through lecture, exercise and role-playing, the attendees of this course can get hands-on experience on practicing APM and appreciate the benefits offered by APM. |
