CBT Nuggets On The Job Training Series: Agile Project Management

Agile Project management is an unconventional approach to successful project completion. It turns project planning upside down by showing you how to team successfully with your business partners and by breaking lots of traditional program-management rules.

Successful Project managers approach large-scale problems by building interactive teams, listening to business partners and creating just the requested solutions (nothing more; nothing less).

The key is understanding business needs and how to use those needs to drive projects and create success. Agile shows you how to make this happen and how to simultaneously add recognized value to your organization.

Steve Caseley's wonderful on-the-job video series captures the essence (and the details) of Agile Project Management. He shows you why this dynamic tool -- with its unique use of limited preplanning, efficient interactive development and judicious documentation -- spells business success.
