Straight From the Author's Mouth: Enhancing Project Success With KPPM

In today’s fast-paced and ever-changing business environment, project managers are constantly challenged to deliver projects successfully while adapting to changes and demands. The Kanban Project, Program, and Portfolio Management (KPPM) approach is gaining traction as a solution to these challenges. What makes KPPM particularly appealing is that it is not a replacement for traditional PM methodologies; rather, it augments and enhances them.

KPPM is rooted in the principles of Kanban, a visual management tool that originated in manufacturing and has been adapted for knowledge work. It focuses on project and service flow management practices, aiming to improve project success rates significantly. KPPM scales naturally, allowing for the management of projects, programs, and portfolios without introducing unnecessary complexity or bureaucracy. It encourages starting where you are and seeking improvement through evolutionary change.

The PMI Germany Chapter is happy to announce that we have managed to secure none other than the author of the KPPM method to give us a short overview and to answer your questions. Mathias Tölken of Xuviate, himself a Kanban and KPPM expert and a PMI Germany Chapter member, will moderate the conversation.
