Agile Project Management by Eric Lean Pdf

If You Want To Master Agile Project Management... Are you... ✓ planning a home renovation? ✓ trying to stick to a meal plan but can't figure out how to plan your grocery shopping? ✓ organizing a big family event and have to coordinate a lot of people and things? Or maybe you're a small business owner or a beginning software developer who's interested in the art and science of project management? Today, project management isn't just practiced in big companies. Basically, anything you do to solve a particular problem or achieve a particular result can be called a project. You can manage your wedding planning, your kitchen renovation, or your family's domestic chores by using the same methods that a professional project manager would apply. There are several philosophies of project management. In classic project management, everything is clearly planned from start to finish before work begins. Agile project management is different: it's more about reacting to change rather than following a plan. Agile methodologies (such as Scrum) are about doing some work in a short sprint, then reviewing the results and planning the next sprint. Agile project management was originally used in software development, but now it's popular in many fields and literally everyone can benefit from some knowledge of it. This book will introduce you to agile project management in a structured, beginner-friendly way. Here's what you'll learn: The surprising benefits of agile project management How to avoid typical beginner mistakes that can make your first agile project fail What the phases of an agile project actually look like How to measure the success of your agile project And much, much more!

Game Theory in Management by Mr Michael Hatfield Pdf

Architects and engineers can build models to test their ideas - why not managers? In Game Theory in Management: Modelling Business Decisions and Their Consequences, author Michael Hatfield presents a series of mathematically structured analogies to real-life business and economic interaction scenarios, and then, using modern game theory, he shows how to test common managerial technical approaches for their effectiveness. His results are astonishing: if game theory is correct then many commonly-held and taught management approaches and techniques are not only less effective than thought, they are actually detrimental in many areas where they are held to be beneficial. Game Theory in Management also examines managerial implications from network theory, cartage schemes, risk management theory, management information system epistemology, and other areas where the quantification and testing of business decisions can be employed to identify winning and losing stratagems. While the topic may seem complex, Game Theory in Management is a readable and fast-paced book; readers will come away with an entirely new perspective on the objectives, tactics, even purpose of management, and ways of evaluating the selected strategies and decisions of those within the team, inside the macro organization, and among competitors. Easily-employed tests for the validity and efficacy of management information systems are also addressed, as are those environments where cartage schemes can be most effective, and where they are not. In the areas of asset, project, and strategic management, Game Theory in Management is certain to become a game-changer.

Agile Project Management with Scrum by Ken Schwaber Pdf

The rules and practices for Scrum—a simple process for managing complex projects—are few, straightforward, and easy to learn. But Scrum’s simplicity itself—its lack of prescription—can be disarming, and new practitioners often find themselves reverting to old project management habits and tools and yielding lesser results. In this illuminating series of case studies, Scrum co-creator and evangelist Ken Schwaber identifies the real-world lessons—the successes and failures—culled from his years of experience coaching companies in agile project management. Through them, you’ll understand how to use Scrum to solve complex problems and drive better results—delivering more valuable software faster. Gain the foundation in Scrum theory—and practice—you need to: Rein in even the most complex, unwieldy projects Effectively manage unknown or changing product requirements Simplify the chain of command with self-managing development teams Receive clearer specifications—and feedback—from customers Greatly reduce project planning time and required tools Build—and release—products in 30-day cycles so clients get deliverables earlier Avoid missteps by regularly inspecting, reporting on, and fine-tuning projects Support multiple teams working on a large-scale project from many geographic locations Maximize return on investment!
