Dear All, In case of a new requirement by a customer on an agile project that is halfway completed and tight on budget, what should be the NEXT action - a) Project manager evaluates the new requirement with the customer to access the benefits as the budget is tight b) The new requirement is added to the product backlog

Dear Friends, is it correct that in traditional project management, the project manager is primarily responsible for successful delivery of the project whereas in agile, it is the product owner? The project manager in agile is merely a facilitator. The product owner owns the responsibility primarily for project successful delivery.

Dear All, Extremely happy to announce that I have cleared my PMP certification exam in my 1st attempt securing 'Above Target' overall. The score breakdown was - Business Environment - AT / Process - AT / People - T Long post alert - as I want to share my experience how I did it to aspiring PMP candidates hoping it will help in their journey and also inspire them. Study materials used - AR PMP guide PMPBOK guide 7th edition Agile Practice guide AR Udemy course TIA exam simulator PMI study hall (lower version) Study duration - 2 months - of which the 1st month was just watching the 35 hour Udemy course and glancing through the above books just to understand the surface and gradually gauge the depth. Full on study effort was the last 4 weeks wherein I spent almost 4 hours everyday focussing completely with zero distractions trying to understand every concept in detail. Booking the exam - The moment I knew after completing the Udemy course that it would take me at least 4/5 weeks to completely prepare, I booked the exam. I initially booked it for 08th Nov but realized that I can actually do it a week earlier so re-scheduled it to 01st Nov. Remember you can reschedule without penalty only if your original exam date is 30 days away. Of course before booking the exam, I applied for PMI membership which took around 3 days for approval. Study plan After completing the Udemy course and booking the exam, I knew I was locked into this which was a great thing to do as there was no looking back now unless I wanted to spend more money. 5th week - I had earlier just glanced through the AR PMP guide and PMBOK guide in the first 4 weeks of the study plan. Now it was the time to thoroughly read and digest, not memorise. There were however some terms which I had to memorize as I was unable to recollect what they were - example: pareto chart, monti carlo simulation, DISC behaviour etc. 6th week - Once I finished thoroughly reading the guides, it was now time for practicals. I purchased the TIA exam simulator and started with a full length mock exam first to gauge where I stood. I scored around 77%. I minutely reviewed every wrong question to see what was the root cause. Then started doing the practice questions and shorter mock exams. I think the TIA exam simulator along with the 2 AR YouTube videos from the Udemy course have in total approx. 1000 questions. This entire week the effort was to complete as many practice questions and short mock exams as possible.
