PM Declaratioin of Interdependence

PM Declaration of Interdependence

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The PM Declaration of interdependence is a set of six management principles initially intended for project managers of Agile Software Development projects. Later on, the name was changed to "The declaration of interdependence for modern management", as it was realized that the principles might be applicable to other management situations.

[edit]Origins

After the Manifesto for Agile Software Development was written in 2001, David Anderson, Sanjiv Augustine, Christopher Avery, Alistair Cockburn, Mike Cohn, Doug DeCarlo, Donna Fitzgerald, Jim Highsmith, Ole Jepsen, Lowell Lindstrom, Todd Little, Kent McDonald, Pollyanna Pixton, Preston Smith and Robert Wysocki worked to see what management principles might be required in order to achieve an Agile Mindset in product and project management. In 2005, they published the agile project management "Declaration of Interdependence" [1]. The six principles they felt essential to modern project management (and to much of management in general).

[edit]The principles

(Quoted from [1])

"We ...

increase return on investment by -- making continuous flow of value our focus.

deliver reliable results by -- engaging customers in frequent interactions and shared ownership.

expect uncertainty and manage for it through -- iterations, anticipation and adaptation.

unleash creativity and innovation by -- recognizing that individuals are the ultimate source of value, and creating an environment where they can make a difference.

boost performance through -- group accountability for results and shared responsibility for team effectiveness.

improve effectiveness and reliability through -- situationally specific strategies, processes and practices."

Welcome to LMS 105

NARRATOR

Welcome to the module of mixed messages. In this module we teach you how to use some advanced tools to make changes to your course homepage. At the same time, we ask that you refrain from making changes to your course homepage. Thus, the mixed message!

Stay Consistent

NARRATOR

We ask you to be consistent. Emerson may have said "a foolish consistency is hobgoblin of little minds" but we argue that consistency in the service of community is not foolish. Consistency helps your students navigate the courses offered by the college. Being consistent in the navigation and controls reduces confusion for your students.

Consistent Items

NARRATOR

Be mindful of consistency in the items on the Course Home page, the links on the NavBar and the Widgets on the page.

NARRATOR

Maintain the default widgets on your course homepage: News, Updates and Events.

NARRATOR

Maintain the default links on your course NavBar.

Be Creative

NARRATOR

Be creative in the development of your course content. Make your materials engaging and entertaining. Deliver you teaching with flair.

NARRATOR

Now for another mixed message!

NARRATOR

When developing entertaining training materials, delivered with style and flair, be careful not to upload large media files. These files place a burden on the Learning Management System and the network resources on which the system relies.

NARRATOR

When you want to use a media file, always contact the Learning Management System administrators. The personnel there will assist you with the best and most efficient way to accomplish what you want to do.

Edit Course

narrator

The tools taught in this module are found on the Course Administration page. Access this page by selecting "Edit Course" on the NavBar.

NARRATOR

On the Course Administration page, the tools are grouped under three headings: General, Tools and Administration.

NARRATOR

When any of the tools is selected, a menu of all the Course Administration tools appears in a pane on the opened page.

Teaching and Learning

Overview:

Knowles' theory of andragogy is an attempt to develop a theory specifically for adult learning. Knowles emphasizes that adults are self-directed and expect to take responsibility for decisions. Adult learning programs must accommodate this fundamental aspect.

Andragogy makes the following assumptions about the design of learning: (1) Adults need to know why they need to learn something (2) Adults need to learn experientially, (3) Adults approach learning as problem-solving, and (4) Adults learn best when the topic is of immediate value.

In practical terms, andragogy means that instruction for adults needs to focus more on the process and less on the content being taught. Strategies such as case studies, role playing, simulations, and self-evaluation are most useful. Instructors adopt a role of facilitator or resource rather than lecturer or grader.

Scope/Application:

Andragogy applies to any form of adult learning and has been used extensively in the design of organizational training programs (especially for "soft skill" domains such as management development).

Example:

Knowles (1984, Appendix D) provides an example of applying andragogy principles to the design of personal computer training:

1. There is a need to explain why specific things are being taught (e.g., certain commands, functions, operations, etc.)

2. Instruction should be task-oriented instead of memorization -- learning activities should be in the context of common tasks to be performed.

3. Instruction should take into account the wide range of different backgrounds of learners; learning materials and activities should allow for different levels/types of previous experience with computers.

4. Since adults are self-directed, instruction should allow learners to discover things for themselves, providing guidance and help when mistakes are made.

(See computers for further discussion of this topic).

Principles:

1. Adults need to be involved in the planning and evaluation of their instruction.

2. Experience (including mistakes) provides the basis for learning activities.

3. Adults are most interested in learning subjects that have immediate relevance to their job or personal life.

4. Adult learning is problem-centered rather than content-oriented.
