A critical skill every project manager should have is the ability to resolve conflict amongst team members quickly and effectively. The project manager needs to have the skill to resolve conflict in a positive manner without causing disruption to the project and dissolution of the team. This session will provide you with insights into the tactics you need to ensure you gain control of conflict situations you may face in leading teams.

Dear Project Management Fellows,

We are happy to announce that the highly anticipated PMP Study Group Season 17 is now open for registration.

The study group this season will be conducted online, considering the large-scale social distancing (PSBB). This will open an opportunity for our members who reside outside of Jakarta, to take part in the Study Group. The study group will run from October to December 2020, covering chapter-by-chapter of the PMBOK 6th Edition. Mentors will be available to discuss and dissect the topics so that the PMP aspirants (mentees) can have a better understanding. There will be quizzes, brain dumps, storylines that will assist you in becoming more confident with each topic. 

Mentors are also alumni of the previous Study Groups so they will have hands-on experience and can emphatize with the pain points that you are going through.

So, if you are :

1) eligible to take the PMP exam,
2) a member of the Indonesia chapter

Then you are good to go.

Sign up through our website www.pmi-indonesia.org and let us be a part of your PMP journey! See you there!

My current, always evolving understanding of Agile:

PUFFED PEPPER QUEST
The problems that we face, for which Agile is an attempted solution:

QUEST
Quality (Software must be easy to change)
Unpredictability (You can't predict the future precisely and accurately)
Economics (Opportunity cost -- you don't get everything)
Scope (What we're building is important and uncertain)
Team (Human factors matter most)

To solve those in software organizations, you have to address problems in 6 areas:

PEPPER
People -- how to work together well
Execution -- how to build, deploy, test well
Process -- how to organize work
Product -- what work to do
Enterprise -- Funding, HR, Change management, etc.
Reasons -- "Adopting Agile" fails. Pursue a goal using agile

And the central solution set in Agile is

PUFFED
Progress -- don't choose a method -- keep improving
Us-theory -- Who does the work: Us (!= you or me or them)
Focus -- Do one thing at a time
Feedback -- Learn fast & change direction fast
Excellence -- continuous focus on quality is essential
Decoupling -- Small, separate pieces that don't rely on one another. It's more than just size.
