Slightly more decentralized online video meeting

An easy solution that does not require any usernames or passwords can lower the barrier of meeting people online. Privately. There are many commercially successful video conferencing platforms but in many articles you can find online the open alternative is not even mentioned. So I chose to not mention the others here. Just open alternatives. And when I say open, it means anyone is free to run an instance as part of their infrastructure or even use any of the available publicly-running instances.

Hiring and developing young managers

It is known that currently there is generally a shortage of skilled workforce for positions such as: manager, SCRUM Master, programmer, analyst, and others.

Careful not to damage your team during the Sprint Retrospective

The point of the SCRUM Sprint Retrospective meeting is to look at both positive and negative aspects of the project.

Four recommendations for Agile projects

In order to manage internal and external projects, many companies are nowadays trying to use agile frameworks. However, in many cases, reading books on agile and being familiar with the agile framework (e.g. SCRUM) is not enough. Companies need to firstly revise their internal processes, reflect on project methodology, define roles and responsibilities descriptions. Before implementing agile management to their projects, they need to set and make sure everybody understands company reporting arrangement.

Future Manager & Business Opportunities

Many managers are not aware of the company's strategy so they cannot make the right decision which are alligned with the strategy. They do not have knowledge about the key strategy goals for the next period. The reason is weak communication among TOP management and middle level management. Cascading strategy (top-down strategy) is missing in the process.

How often should we engage the whole team in risk evaluation&response process via Risk Matrix? Is it a good practise to include this on every iteration planning meeting? Or is this something which should be done only by PM during iterations?

The most famous soccer teams only win thanks to the players’ individual competencies and the team’s ability to precisely fulfill strategy instructions. In the business environment, the company has positive results, when not only works with competent experts, but they are at the same time able to follow the TOP Management strategy decisions.
