TRACK:

PROJECT MANAGEMENT

Monday, November 1

The reasons why projects fail has been explored numerous times. At this year’s project management track, we’ll take a slightly different approach by not looking at the tools, but by actually looking at the actual project management as the key to unlocking successful projects.

We’ll hear from different perspectives both agencies and customers and learn actionable insights to bring home for our 2022 projects.

Building a continuous learning process - at scale

How do you collect feedback from customers and colleagues in a sensible way, and put it to good use?

Moving from overloading single Product Owners with information to a structured way of gathering feedback has allowed Danfoss to build a continuous learning process.

Initially in one Scrum team. Now in five. Soon in seven.

Enterprise agile transformation - why it fails and how we learn from it

Having experienced several failed agile transformations, Sigrid looked into the information available in the projects, searching for answers; why were the projects initiated, why didn't they deliver as expected - and most importantly, what were the warning signs along the way that nobody reacted to?

How we approach innovation with a musician-mindset

The Port of Aarhus engaged Klean to digitalize their company…

This started an innovation process, based on trust, broad engagement, the breaking of silos, and - of course - an app

The fails and learnings of launching a new IT project

When launching IT projects in a non IT environment, there has to be a fine balance between technical advancement and the wishes of the end user.

Just because you can build it, doesn't mean you should.

This session discusses the process of ideas turning into a project and the disappointing outcome. Join this session for unicorns, learnings and a lot of bumps in the road.
