Mike Griffiths - February 3rd, 2009
The Regina .NET User Group, together with CIPS Saskatchewan, presents Mike Griffiths.
Topic: Agile Project Leadership
Description:
Agile projects require shared leadership and collaboration to be successful, yet many organizations try to use outdated command-and-control approaches.
"We manage property and lead people. If you try to manage people they feel like property".
This presentation exposes the weaknesses of trying to use formal project management on emergent endeavours and outlines the leadership and collaboration based alternatives.
