What role do PMs (project managers) play in software projects, and what techniques do they use to create successful software releases? Mark Dodd, long-time PM at Koncept, walks us through his process of managing project scope, meeting best practices, and how to involve key stakeholders into software projects.
- What is a stakeholder? How do stakeholders differ from investors?
- What happens when a stakeholder doesn't want to be involved in a software project?
- How can we best determine key stakeholders in software projects?
- What is risk mitigation, and how can we pre-emptively deal with bugs and stakeholder issues prior to ending a sprint?
- What's the difference between agile and what PMs do? Should all PMs know or practice agile? How important is agile to project managers?
- What does a great retrospective look like? What strategies do PMs use to conduct successful retrospectives?
