 Are your Values and your Valuing Habits misaligned? What is the impact of that on you, your teams, and your organization? Green or Gold? Which team "stuck it to" the other? Thanks to Traci Duez for a very engaging and enlightening tour showing us how our valuing habits must correspond to the value we are trying to create. You can learn more about Traci at www.pmbrilliance.com.

APLN Houston is proud to share our second anniversary celebration event with PMI Houston's Westside meeting. PMI Houston was our first sponsor when APLN Houston started meeting two years ago by providing a meeting venue until we moved to Sysco in 2009. APLN Houston members please note that this meeting has been extended beyond our normal time and will end at 8:00pm The Impact of your Valuing Habits on Delivering Project Value Agile project management is highly focused on value. Agile projects are value-driven whereas traditional projects are plan-driven. Agile also requires that its participants are value-driven as well. The valuing habits of the team MUST be aligned with what adds the most value in the world. Axiology has shown us that is not always true. There is a mathematical hierarchy of value that is as immutable as the law of gravity. Understanding this and implementing it in your projects (and your life) will ensure that you ADD VALUE. In this presentation you will discover: The mathematical hierarchy of value. That your valuing habits are NOT always aligned with your values. A new way of looking at the thinking and valuing that affects you, your team and your stakeholders. A group exercise to show how your ‘need to be right’ may be impacting your ability to add value. The value of Axiology to Agile Projects.
