Quality Improvement and Project Management go hand-in-hand. This visit was hosted by software company Mayden, and introduced Q members to a new way of managing a project based upon principles that are familiar to quality improvement – iterative learning, value to the customer, reflection and understanding complexity.

Check out some reflections from attendees on what they took away from the day below:

Objectives of the visit:

• to gain a basic understanding of Agile project management
• to learn about how Mayden have applied agile in its work in mental health (IAPTUS)
• to see how software is developed first-hand
• to be able to apply some Agile principles to QI projects
