I attended PMI Bangalore Chapters' 7th Anniversary session of PM Footprints at Hotel Atria on 9 Nov 2013. The event included a session titled Agile development: Cultural Nuances by Sivan Menon, CTO - SW, GE Healthcare India, John F Welch Technology Center and another one titled Meandering Musings by Siva Vajjhala, CEO & MD Advanced Business &Healthcare Solutions India. It is a wonder that a program of this nature where a speaker presents on a topic every two weeks had recorded a total of 213 sessions without missing a beat over seven years. The speakers who contributed to making this happen during 2012-13 were also recognized with a certificate and a small gift on the occasion. I also felt happy to have been a speaker for the session on Risk management few months back.
The event provided an occasion to get to know Murali Santhanam and Vijay C Paul, who have taken over as President, Secretary respectively of PMI Bangalore Center. BG Jayaram, past President thanked Amar Bhaskar for the program initiation and wished that it would evolve to support virtual sessions and failure stories which will be of great help for professionals. The "Recognition of Excellence" award received by PMI Bangalore Chapter from PMI was presented to the audience by Vijay Paul.
Sivan explained how Software development evolved over the years towards Agile development with the Internet era. He explained that human resource processes needed to change to support this transformation. He said that simple techniques like empowering the teams to participate in selecting new team members or using 360 degree feedback for appraisals are helpful in the cultural change. He spoke about how he has seen Agile work even in a well regulated domain like medical products, by engaging more with customer has been beneficial and how these can be extended to other industries.
Siva focused on more down to earth matters like the common pit falls in pre-sales processes and use of human intelligence and triangulation to identify potential problems in early stages can be helpful based on his experiences at Mindtree. He also talked about group dynamics and introduced the dangers of group think and group shift and how they can be avoided by simple techniques like step ladder technique where individual group recommendations are combined in a sequential manner with those from other groups.
During the Q&A session, T. R. Anand, Management Consultant & Advisor opined that organizations need to develop skills to handle unstated scope, which may lead to risks/opportunities.
Rakesh who served as the anchor for the program and other speakers made the entire evening entertaining by humorous remarks.
