They discuss the evolution of project management, the significance of building trust, and the challenges of navigating stakeholder expectations. The conversation highlights the need for project managers to learn from their experiences and adapt to the changing landscape of the profession, ultimately advocating for a supportive and humane work environment.

drunkenpmradio · An interview with Jimi Fosdick of Fearless Agility


Takeaways


    •    Traditional project management is effective for problems that can be solved on paper upfront, but may not work well for software development.
    •    Agile approaches, such as Scrum, are better suited for software development and other complex, empirical problems.
    •    The term 'agile' has become an overloaded and misused brand in the consulting industry.
    •    Hybrid approaches that combine traditional project management and agile practices can be problematic and may not fully embrace the values and principles of agile.
    •    A people-centered approach is essential in project management, and the focus should be on collaboration, respect, and solving the right problems. Traditional project management relies on upfront planning, which can lead to longer cycle times and higher failure rates.
    •    An empirical approach, such as Agile, allows for shorter cycle times and the ability to adapt and change as needed.
    •    The fear of failure often hinders organizations from embracing more agile and iterative approaches.
    •    There is a growing emphasis on creating more humane workspaces and allowing for more flexibility and creativity in the workplace.
