S7E157:Streamlining Operations with Agile Controls: The Key to Business-As-Usual Performance with Ellen Mellington

In this week’s pod, we were joined by Ellen Mellington to discuss Streamlining Operations with Agile Controls: The Key to Business-As-Usual Performance. As a transformation and governance leader Ellen has delivered change portfolios and major projects in transport, healthcare and environment sectors. Having direct exposure to the challenges faced financially, culturally and commercially in delivering Public Services she has applied the right blend of governance and controls to achieve integration and collaboration. The aspect that she enjoys the most is supporting businesses to design successful operating models by connecting the dots between people, process, organisation and technology. The main topics we discussed on the podcast were as follows: - Agile processes are applicable to all projects, not just IT projects - Using waterfall processes can limit innovation within businesses - The main challenge around implementing agile controls is convincing businesses that Project Controls are a core function and not an optional extra - One of the challenges in convincing business leaders to adopt an agile mentality is that they are too reactive to change - Every organization should have a change management function Join us next time when we’re joined by Micah Piippo to discuss Planning Projects: Past, Present & Future For more information, blogs or to support our charities visit www.projectchatterpodcast.com If you'd like to sponsor the podcast get in touch via our website.
