SUMMARY:Stop Aligning\, Start Agreeing
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, October 8 at 11:00 am – Noon EDT  |  Virtual Session\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHow to keep your head when\, all around you\, people are losing theirs.\n\n\n\nWhen organizations are under pressure\, good people do predictable things. They focus inward\, protect their priorities\, and work harder on the things they can control. That’s not a character flaw but a rational response to incentives that reward local performance over shared outcomes. \n\n\n\nThe side effect is that alignment means less. Leaders agree in the room yet pull in different directions afterward. This isn’t bad faith; it’s a system that gives them no real reason to trade anything away. Delivery teams feel it first: too many priorities\, too much noise\, and the sense that being transparent about capacity just creates more conversations to manage. \n\n\n\nThere’s a better move. Get agreement\, not alignment\, on what your team will deliver in the next 30 days. Agreement means someone named a trade-off. Alignment means everyone nodded. The difference? A 30-day commitment that’s genuinely agreed is also a 30-day license to defer everything that isn’t part of that commitment. Less noise. Clearer focus. And the ability to build a track record of delivery that speaks louder than any status report. \n\n\n\nYou will leave the session with: \n\n\n\n\nA clear frame for why pressure produces misalignment — and why it’s structural\, not personal\n\n\n\nA practical way to shift planning conversations from alignment to agreement\n\n\n\nA 30-day focus model that protects delivery cadence and legitimately defers out-of-cycle noise\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLevel: Intermediate – for delivery leads\, product owners\, and practitioners managing in complex or high-pressure environments. \n\n\n\nMeet your speaker\n\n\n\nDave Sharrock founded IncrementOne and has spent 25 years helping organizations deliver faster and tell the truth about the work. Across financial services\, manufacturing\, eCommerce\, federal government\, and education\, he works on the part of change that tools don’t solve: how people absorb new ways of working\, and what leaders have to change about how they measure and decide. That is also how he approaches AI adoption. He holds a PhD and an MBA\, and is the only person in Canada to hold both Certified Scrum Trainer and Certified Enterprise Coach (Emeritus) designations. He co-hosts the Definitely\, Maybe Agile podcast.

SUMMARY:A Hack-for-Good Case Study
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, September 17  |  11:00 am EDT  |  Virtual Session\n\n\n\n One Part Hackathon\, One Part Immersive Learning Experience\, One Part Social Good\n\n\n\nTheory is great; compressed\, real-world delivery under nebulous conditions is even better. In this case study\, Jason Hall and Kody Fintak will unpack how PMI® Agile 2026 participants leveraged Agile practices and modern AI coding tools to solve two mission-critical problems for the Jubilee Association of Maryland in just two days. \n\n\n\nKey Takeaways\n\n\n\n\nCustomer-centric Delivery: Why early\, direct customer involvement systematically trumps prep time.\n\n\n\nAI-Assisted Mobbing: How advanced AI changes team coding dynamics under tight deadlines.\n\n\n\nAgile Emergence: How to strike the sweet spot between structural alignment and team self-organization when the clock is ticking.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMeet your speakers\n\n\n\nJason Hall is a Product Operations leader with 13+ years of experience helping enterprise organizations align strategy\, product development\, and delivery.

SUMMARY:You’re Probably Solving the Wrong Problem
DESCRIPTION:Wednesday\, August 12\, 2026  |  Virtual Event\n\n\n\nYour project is stuck. Teams are working hard but not delivering. You think you know what’s wrong – maybe the testers need training\, the team needs better tools\, or processes need tightening. So you jump in to fix it. \n\n\n\nBut what if you’re solving the wrong problem? \n\n\n\nOur speaker\,  Kimberly Andrikaitis\, once spent weeks building a training program to fix what she thought was a skill gap. Before fully launching it\, she used a simple Problem Identification Worksheet that revealed she’d completely misdiagnosed the problem. That pause saved months of wasted effort. \n\n\n\nIn this talk\, Kimberly will share the six-question worksheet that helps you test your assumptions before you build solutions. You’ll learn how to distinguish between what you THINK is wrong and what’s ACTUALLY wrong\, and how to design small experiments that reveal the real problem. \n\n\n\nSix questions. Ten minutes. Zero wasted months. \n\n\n\nMeet your speaker\n\n\n\nKimberly Andrikaitis is a transformational coach\, trainer\, and organizational advisor with over 25 years of experience leading delivery across software development\, financial services\, aerospace\, and manufacturing. She is the author of Look Up: Solve What Matters (Business Expert Press\, 2026) and is trained in Co-Active coaching. Kimberly specializes in helping project managers and delivery professionals uncover organizational dysfunction instead of blaming teams for systemic problems. She currently provides delivery consulting and training services\, helping organizations identify and eliminate the waste that blocks project success.
