West Lake Norman Community Meeting
Speaker: Pete Oliver
Schedule:
5:30 – 6:00 Networking
6:00 – 7:00 Presentation
If you are like me you have been hearing all about agile methodology across the PM field including the adoption of agile, lean, SCRUM and completing agile training. I realized that I had to practice this theory in my everyday work life and I kick started my own agile transformation. I was seeking to gain practical experience in the use of Agile methodology. I established a personal SCRUM/ KANBAN board to manage my daily activity, set priorities, and direct my funnel of work with the goal of improving my productivity. As I continue implementing the agile methodology into my daily tasks, I am focusing on improving the integration of my personal Kanban board with email, calendar, and for team collaboration. Through this process, I have found the most impactful aspect of this stage of my journey is getting into the agile mindset. This transformation took my knowledge of agile and put it into practice creating meaningful change in my professional life.

Community Chapter Meeting
As a means of helping chapter and local community members who are certified as a Project Management Professional (PMP®) satisfy the continuing education requirements for re-certification, PMI Metrolina Chapter arranges its monthly meeting schedule to allow a 1 hour PDU training session to be incorporated into its normal meeting.
Topics presented during these sessions are designed to not only satisfy the PDU requirement for re-certifying as a PMP, but to also provide wide appeal to people involved in project management regardless of whether or not they are certified PMPs. The 1-hour sessions meet the educational requirements to qualify for 1 PDU credits for maintaining PMP® certification or to meet the requirement for attending 35 hours of formal project management education prior to applying to sit for the PMP® exam.
The sessions are open to all.
