Global Product Management Talk is pleased to bring you episode 078 of...

The Everyday Innovator with host Chad McAllister, PhD.

The podcast is all about helping people involved in innovation and managing products become more successful, grow their careers, and STANDOUT from their peers.

About the Episode: Project management is an important tool for product managers and an area where we have choices. I often hear Agile practitioners talk about the evils of more planned methodologies, like Waterfall and Stage-Gate. Like most things, these areas are not so black and white and the nuances are important. My guest, Chuck Cobb, is the perfect person to address these topics. He is the author of the best-selling book “The Project Manager’s Guide to Mastering Agile” as well as four other books on Agile Project Management and Business Excellence. He has also developed a very successful online training curriculum on Agile Project Management, including a free course he is offering to listeners.

In this interview you will learn:
how to compare waterfall and agile approaches,the problems agile project management strives to solve,why both planned and adaptive approaches need to be used, andcommon issues encountered when adopting agile project management.
