Training Overview

Training Overview

Agile and agility are terms that are frequently used today, but what do they truly mean? And how do they impact our projects and organizations?

We are operating in an increasingly volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous (VUCA) business environment. Events like the pandemic, along with political and financial turmoil, have only highlighted this reality. In business, change is a constant—especially when it comes to evolving customer needs and expectations. For an organization to succeed, it must be capable of adapting quickly and efficiently to changes in the business landscape.

Agile emphasizes valuing people over tools, delivering working products over detailed documentation, fostering collaboration over contract negotiations, and embracing change over rigidly following a plan. However, it’s important to note that Agile is not about a lack of control.

In this Agile Project Manager Master Class training course, participants will gain an understanding of how Agile principles, values, tools, and mindsets can be applied to deliver value in today’s complex, post-pandemic environment. Starting with the foundational values and principles of Agile, the course dives into a practical exploration of the most widely-used frameworks and tools. The course wraps up with a comprehensive look at current post-pandemic trends and how Agile can shape the future of organizations.

This training course will feature:

  • The Agile values and principles
  • How to create an effective Agile working environment
