The Agile VMO™: From Project to Product

Overview

Where can leaders best add value in a fast-moving, agile and entrepreneurial world?
In today’s high-pressure world, successful organizations deliver in smaller, more frequent releases to learn, pivot and innovate. While this model is the default on agile teams, it runs counter to legacy organizational structures with a project model. Invariably, the project model drives large batches and inefficient handoffs, generates wasteful cost and schedule overruns, and results in products that miss the mark, along with unhappy customers and employees.
Now, with the advent of business agility, leading companies are leveraging agile methods to drive a shift from a project to product operating model. Moving from agile teams to end-to-end teams, these market leaders are achieving enviable time-to-market accelerations and creating product innovations that delight their customers. In this new and exciting world, leaders have adopted new management approaches to move towards end-to-end business agility.
In particular, middle managers are enabling rapid delivery of value and successful business outcomes via the creation of the Agile Value Management Office™. Learn how the Agile Value Management Office™ (AVMO™) aligns with the small batches, frequent releases and continuous adaptation required by an agile organization. We’ll explore how to:
• Create a tight, collaborative management team that leads the delivery of value
• Bring lean discipline to product portfolio prioritization
• Track in-flight product work using a Visual Management System
• Establish an end-to-end team model of resource management
We’ll conclude with a review of case studies of companies using the Agile VMO™.
