The PMI Agile Community of Practice

Different circumstances require different project approaches. Sometimes we need a piece of plan-driven, other times we need a bucket of agile. But we are always in need of Project Leaders that know how to handle all available project strategies.

That is way I am very excited about the recently founded PMI Agile Community of Practice. It’s one of the latest communities of the Project Management Institute, the largest Project Management organization with a strong “plan-driven” tradition. The new community aims to equip PMI Members with Agile skills and knowledge.

In this episode of The Project Shrink Podcast I am talking to Jesse Fewell, one of the people involved in starting the community.

We discuss what PMPs can learn from agilist and vice versa; and what people can expect from the new community.

For those of you visiting Agile 2009 in Chicago this month, the PMI Agile Community will be there promoting their launch.
