#92 Adrian Pyne, The Agile Beyond IT Guy (Part 1)

This week I have part one of my chat with Adrian Pyne, The Agile Beyond IT Guy. Adrian has two impressive track records: Delivery & Professional. Delivery 30 years plus led or rescued Change programmes in many sectors (see below), adapting best practice successfully, with a focus on Agility since 2010 . The design, build & leading project, programme and portfolio management (P3) capability for organisations, and Professional Services. Adrian is currently collaborating on [1] Agile Leadership & Project Management [2] Organisation Project Management (OPM), i.e. helping organisations create an environment to maxismise value from projects [3] P3 capability development and Sponsorship coaching Professional Adrian has been at the forefront of the evolution of programme and portfolio management, e.g. APM BoK 6 lead author. A frequent conference speaker and blogger, and co-author of The Gower Handbook of Programme Management, and of APM guides on Agile Governance & Assurance. He says: “Despite great developments in best practice over the last 30 years, around 70% of change still fails, wasting huge investment. There are two main reasons; firstly, many organisations seem unable to address that most difficult success factor – people. There is so much potential for work in this area, integrating people based aspects with the business process and technology. Secondly, working at the organisational level to ensure that the landscape around projects helps them THRIVE and not just SURVIVE, or worse, FAIL.” Links https://www.linkedin.com/in/apyne/ https://amzn.to/3trpnPy Support the Show www.nigelcreaser.com/shop
