Vision, Mission, and Values

To support programs run by volunteer professionals as platforms to learn and experience Scrum fundamentals and other Agile frameworks and practices through immersion.
Our Values
Collaboration, transparency, empirical leadership, and continuous improvement.
Together, these elements guide how ASVPM develops empirical leaders who lead with evidence, adaptability, and an Agile mindset.
Who we are
The Silicon Valley Project Management website – SVProjectManagement.com – was started in 2006 to create a community of Project Managers who share best practices, experiences, and lessons learned. Our cross-functional volunteer community adapted a hybrid of Agile frameworks and created the SVPM Scrum Team program.
www.svprojectmanagment.com is a blogging platform that provides Agile/PM practitioners an online space to share their knowledge and expertise with our community. It also gives project managers/professionals an opportunity to gain hands-on experience using Agile frameworks.
How we work
The SVPM Scrum Team Program utilizes Agile frameworks to help volunteers build Product Backlogs, create self-governing Scrum Teams, and build various tasks to support our online community. The close collaboration of our cross-functional team enables us to employ an Agile mindset using a hybrid of Agile frameworks such as Scrum, Kanban, Lean, XP, FDD, and any adaptive practice that we learn through collaborative work.
