Successfully Designing Hybrid Project ManagementWhy the combination of Scrum with conventional project management approaches hardly adds any value and which alternatives have been proven for years.. E-book. Formato EPUB Justus M. Dumont   -  Books On Demand, 2021  - 

Many organizations find that the use of Scrum does not bring the expected positive effects. In addition, such projects often do not seem to be really controllable. Accordingly, attempts are made to achieve more control and controlling possibilities and better risk and quality management by combining Scrum with a project management methodology. Often it remains with the attempt, because thereby some fundamental considerations and realizations are not considered. Justus M. Dumont, a successful consultant and project manager for more than twenty years, has this to say:'Many customers believe that Scrum leads to productivity increases and cost reductions in every case. The fact that this is not automatically the case and, in many cases, leads to loss of control and poorer results makes them look for alternatives. Many believe they can find the best of both worlds, so to speak, by combining classic project management and Scrum, only to find that they are more likely to achieve the disadvantages of both approaches.'In this book, the author presents an approach that has optimally combined agility and project control for more than two decades, thereby even enabling successful fixed-price projects.

Hybrides Projektmanagement erfolgreich gestaltenWarum die Kombination von Scrum mit herkömmlichen Projektmanagement-Ansätzen kaum Wertschöpfung bringt und welche Alternativen seit Jahren bewährt sind. E-book. Formato EPUB Justus M. Dumont   -  Books On Demand, 2021  - 

Viele Organisationen stellen fest, dass der Einsatz von Scrum nicht die erwarteten positiven Effekte bringt. Daneben scheinen solche Projekte oft nicht wirklich steuerbar. Entsprechend wird versucht, durch die Kombination von Scrum mit einer Projektmanagement-Methodik mehr Steuerung und Controlling-Möglichkeiten und ein besseres Risiko- und Qualitätsmanagement zu erreichen. Oft bleibt es beim Versuch, denn dabei werden einige grundlegende Überlegungen und Erkenntnisse nicht berücksichtigt. Justus M. Dumont, seit über zwanzig Jahren als Berater und Projektleiter erfolgreich, sagt dazu:'Viele Kunden glauben, dass Scrum in jedem Fall zu Produktivitätssteigerungen und Kostenreduktionen führt. Dass dies nicht automatisch der Fall ist und in vielen Fällen zu Kontrollverlust und schlechteren Resultaten führt, lässt sie nach Alternativen suchen. Viele glauben durch die Kombination aus klassischem Projektmanagement und Scrum sozusagen das Beste aus beiden Welten zu finden und stellen dabei fest, dass sie damit eher die Nachteile beider Ansätze erreichen.'Im vorliegenden Buch stellt der Autor einen Ansatz vor, der seit über zwei Jahrzehnten Agilität und Projektsteuerung optimal vereint und dadurch sogar erfolgreiche Festpreis-Projekte ermöglicht.

THE ISLAND OF ENCHANTMENT - A Medieval Tale of Action and Adventure. E-book. Formato PDF Justus Miles Forman   -  Abela Publishing, 2020  - 

In the spring of 1355 evil were spreading abroad. Tidings which you cannot bury, nor hide. News had come secretly and fleetingly to Venice that Lewis (Louis) of Hungary, who had previously looted Venetian waters, was on his way to a second invasion, and had given over the Dalmatian towns to the Ban of Bosnia to ravage. Young Zuan Gradenigo, making his way on foot from the crowded Merceria into the Piazza di San Marco, ran upon his friend, the young German captain, whom men called Il Lupo—even though his name was Wölfart—and learned, what almost every other man in the city already knew about Lewis of Hungary. The two men were standing beside one of the gayly painted booths at the foot of the great Campanile, still eagerly discussing the matter and its probable outcome, half an hour later, when a servant in the livery of the doge touched young Zuan’s arm and, in a low tone, gave him a message. Gradenigo turned back to the German. "My uncle wishes to see me at once in the palace," he said. At the head of the great stair two men were awaiting him, and they led him at once through a narrow passage with secret sliding-doors to the inner cabinet of the private apartments of the newly elected doge, his uncle, Giovanni Gradenigo. What was young Zuan tasked with? What happened next you may well ask and what adventures await young Zuan? Well you’ll have to download this book and read for yourself what lies in store for young Zuan Gradenigo and the mission he was about to be sent on. Don’t wait!
