• Agile Team Performance Management

  Friday, August 06, 2010 at 2:00 PM

  While many organizations have adopted Agile approaches at a project level, few have effectively aligned their human performance management processes with Agile values. This presentation and discussion will explore the subject of creating a truly holistic performance system that not only adheres to Agile principles, but actively promotes maturity in applying them to the delivery of measurable business and user value.

  We will discuss:

  - What’s wrong with performance management today?
  - Trends in performance management evolution
  - A holistic, results-oriented framework for Agile team performance management and individual talent development.
