The U-shaped Agile Team

Thursday 2:30pm - 3:00pm, PMI IT Project Management Day (Room 2 (Assurity))

Lessons from a TOC expert on how to execute Agile projects much faster by CHOOSING your team’s bottleneck, rather than leaving it to fate.

Your Agile teams’ bottleneck determines their throughput, whether they know it or not. Some bottlenecks are good, some are bad, and some are stupid. Did you know that you can choose your bottleneck? This session will show you - by example - how to do that.

You’ll learn how to run faster than you ever thought possible ... by managing your bottleneck, rather than letting it manage you.
