Governance Forum - 190327

"How to Govern When There Is No Governance: Agile XP"

Presented by Joe Sisto, Director for Software Development, Nexient

The Governance Forum provides value to the PMI Atlanta community by offering participants:

Discussion of field-tested best practices, Decisions frameworks to assess culture and apply optimal strategy, Key takeaways to “take to work tomorrow” to maximize realization of value through introduction and standardization of best practices in the oversight and execution of projects, programs, and portfolios.

Presentation

Agile Methodologies leave governance processes as an open topic. You can implement some basic oversight over data, architecture, releases and programs that keep the speed of Agile, while reducing overhead with some additions to Agile XP.

Many people believe that Agile and Governance are mutually exclusive terms.   However, there are places in Agile Methodologies, where Governance adds value. 

This session describes some processes that can be put into place for portfolio review, architecture, data and code maintenance and support processes… We also cover the topic of Governance and Agile in general to see what areas can be improved in in the future.
