Previous Workshops

Agile project management

Agile project management is a proven method that is designed for high-uncertainty projects. For example, Agile is appropriate for projects where the requirements may be changing or the tools may be new.
Agile was developed for software but today these techniques are applied to a wide range of projects, from information technology to non-profit strategy development and from manufacturing to education. The focus is on empowering teams to collaborate and make decisions quickly and effectively.
This workshop in Agile Project Management consists of two six-hour sessions during which attendees work on their own real projects and leave with a plan that’s tailored for their company and ready for use.
  • Day One teaches how to select the best projects for the company and quickly determine the boundaries of the project’s scope. Attendees write project charters suitable for sharing with stakeholders, and learn the Scrum methodology.
  • Day Two teaches how to assess the risks and lay out the road map of specific project work by writing Agile User Stories, so that attendees leave ready to work with their teams.
Ideally, organizations send intact teams to this training so that they can develop the project together. However, individuals are welcome to attend. Please submit a short project description with your registration to programs@hannahgrimes.com

LEAN training in Keene means your employees spend less time traveling and a shared class means you can train just one or a few employees at a time, as needed, sharing the class with other local companies.  Each participant will receive a hands-on introduction to the newest interpretations of the principles of Lean Manufacturing, along with the methodology to implement those notions into a modern manufacturing or service environment.  By utilizing a simulated learning environment, participants experience a complete Lean transformation.
