What is your tribe? Have you identified the group of people that you work effectively with? Has your organization learned to bring the work to the people or are you still bringing the people to the work? Listen to this episode to hear Brad Hugick and Steven Fullmer discuss the nuances of Agile, Neurosociology and Project Management.

What a way to start off 2020 and Season 3 with an engaging and thought-provoking discussion. Brad is an Enterprise Coach and shared several tools, techniques and tips from his career journey. If you’re planning or in the middle of an Agile Transformation this is a must listen to episode. Brad provided several real world, practical solutions he’s gathered during his career from Alistair Cockburn, Influential Books, and personal experience.

Steve connected the Agile topics to Neurosociology. As a repeat guest, he continued to share his vast knowledge of how and why we think and behave as individuals and in teams. It is quite thought provoking to hear the connection Steve can make between Brad’s experiences and the science of how our brain works. This was a great show to kick-off Season 3 allowing leaders in our industry a platform to share their story!

Blue Sphere Solutions was founded by Steven Fullmer to aid customers to Organize the Chaos of Technological Change. In the process of supporting technological and engineering advances, Blue Sphere Solutions has evolved to become a leader in the understanding and development of successful project focused change.

Areas of focus include neurosociology (the intersection between factors influencing sustainable individual and social change), instruction, facilitation, strategic development, and the design of tactical implementations.

Change adoption is more a matter of perception and inclusion than it is understanding the specification or objective elements of technologies, processes or systems. A wholistic approach toward coordinating service and understanding outcome focused work enables sustainable solutions.

Steven Fullmer is president and chief technology officer of Blue Sphere Solutions and a staff instructor focusing in project management and business analysis course development and delivery for Interface Technical Training. He has authored more than two dozen project management, business analysis, and technology courses; as well as authoring and presenting more than 3000 training lessons across more than 20 video series.

Steven has been an engineer and principal architect for Honeywell and NEC super computers; a systems architect, security officer and cryptographic systems manager for First Interstate and Wells Fargo Banks; and a primary contributor to the development of technologies for AG Communication Systems/Lucent Technologies as a subject matter expert in the development of voice-over-IP and related Internet technologies as a lead architect or project manager.

As an author and public speaker, Steve focusses on topics related to project management and neurosociology – a nascent science focusing on the merging of behavioral (psychology, sociology, management) and scientific (neuroscience, physiology, and neurochemistry) aspects of the human condition associated with change.

ABOUT PROJECT MANAGEMENT OFFICE HOURS SERIES

Project Management Office Hours is intended to provide Project Management professionals a place to drop in and discuss Success Stories, Best Practices, and Lessons Learned. Project Management Consultant Joy Gumz has shared with us, “Operations keep the lights on, strategy provides the light at the end of the tunnel, but project management is the train engine that moves the organization forward.”

Each of us has a unique story to tell, but collectively we share a message that organizations who embrace Project Management Best Practices perform better than those which don’t. Organizations which align Projects to Strategy perform better. Organizations with Engage Executive Sponsors deliver better results. Organizations which measure Project Management performance outperform those which don’t.

During our Project Management Office Hours, we hear directly from Industry leaders how to make an impact in our profession. How we, collectively, will Advance Project Management Best Practices, One Listener at a time!
