Facilitated by Ola M.

Scrum is one framework inside a much larger discipline of project management. This session steps back from Scrum-specific ceremonies to cover the core project management fundamentals every Agile practitioner should know — the concepts that show up whether or not a team calls itself “Agile.”

We’ll cover the project lifecycle, the classic triple constraint (scope, time, cost) and how Agile reframes it, stakeholder and risk management fundamentals, and how Agile and traditional PM vocabulary map onto each other so practitioners can speak both languages.

Learning Objectives

Understand core project management concepts independent of any specific framework.
Learn how the traditional triple constraint maps to Agile trade-off conversations.
Build a shared vocabulary for working with PMP-trained colleagues and stakeholders.
Recognize which traditional PM tools (RAID logs, charters, stakeholder registers) are still useful inside an Agile team.

Who Should Attend?

Scrum Masters, Product Owners, and anyone who came into Agile without a traditional project management background — as well as PMP holders who want to see how their existing knowledge connects to Agile ways of working.

Key Takeaways

A clear picture of project management fundamentals beyond Scrum.
A shared vocabulary for working across Agile and traditional PM environments.
Confidence discussing scope, budget, and timeline trade-offs with non-Agile stakeholders.
