Project To Product

Project to Product makes the solid case that in the Age of Software, the methods that served us well for over a century are truly coming to an end: project management, managing technology as a cost center, traditional outsourcing strategies, and relying on software architecture as the primary means to increase developer productivity. And better yet, it provides a wonderful framework to replace it, namely the Flow Framework.

This course is intended for Project Managers, Analysts, Consultants and other people responsible for the deployment and management of a project.

You’ll learn what it looked like when an organization spent over a billion dollars on a technology transformation that was doomed to fail from the beginning because it was trying to solve the wrong prolem.

You will learn how some of the fastest growing companies nearly died by ignoring technical debt that was accumulated in their need to cut corners to ship products quickly, which included Nokia’s massive Agile transformation that did nothing to stop its demise.
