Description
Many large, traditional organizations and their famously successful leaders have embarked on ambitious missions to "create, operate and trade" new businesses to compete with disrupters in an ever-changing economy. These organizations establish corporate venture funds, create internal accelerators or incubators, partner with or spin up innovation labs, and hire big names from Silicon Valley hoping they’ll sprinkle some magic dust on the company and reclaim the glory they once achieved.

Description
For any organization that has projects that are of huge size, complex in nature, with huge numbers of resources located at various geographical locations, a lot of interdependencies are present and a lot of coordination is required. As not taking up a big project is not an option, people who are involved in running these types of projects need to constantly review and monitor their progress and delivery. To do this monitoring effectively and to improve continuously for high-quality product delivery that satisfies the customers, different organizations adopt different mechanisms and methods at various stages in the life cycle of the projects. Holding release retrospectives is one such tool that has been effectively used by many organizations, with good results.

Description
Many organizations have struggled over the past few decades with a blizzard of process improvement methodologies such as Total Quality Management (TQM), Kaizen, JIT Production, and Re-Engineering. These operations are understandably leery of adopting new methodologies given their past experience, especially with a focus on return on investments and leveraging existing practices. This article examines the relationship of Agile, CMMI®, Lean Production and the Six Sigma Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, and Control (DMAIC) roadmap. The intent is to explain how these methodologies might be synergistically combined for a cohesive approach to enhance continuous process improvement.
