Introducing new ways of working to teams can be challenging, but they can also bring new insights and solutions that help teams deliver successful projects. We discuss this with:
Alexandre Mariano Vieira, AHPP, PMI-ACP, PMP, project manager, SSA México, México City: Mariano Vieira discusses how he evaluates whether a new way of working would be a good fit for his teams or projects, how he introduced agile techniques to create a hybrid approach and how this new way of working improved project delivery timelines.
Jessica Montgomery, AHPP, PMP, project manager, CACI, San Antonio, Texas, USA: Montgomery discusses challenges project managers might face when introducing a new way of working when a project is already underway, plus she shares an example of how she built buy-in for agile techniques at a government organization that strictly used a predictive (waterfall) approach for projects.
