Expectations

I'd like to build on my existing project management skill set. I currently use a hybrid waterfall-agile methodology in my project management but would like to move into a heavier agile role. I work closely with my project stakeholders to learn what their project objectives are and what hurdles (if any) they're expecting me to take the project team over. I have a track record for bringing my teams into first place on execution and I expect to continue that record.
