Leading with Agile and Scrum

The Agile methodology has quickly become a leading approach for software development companies and many forward-thinking organizations across industries looking to accelerate innovation and digital transformation. Due to its demonstrated benefits – such as accelerated time to market, enhanced team productivity, and increased value delivery to customers – this approach has been increasingly adopted across non-technology projects, extending its relevance beyond the tech sector.  

Program Overview

While some organizations are slow or have failed to make this shift, others have fallen into the trap of superficially adopting some practices and using the buzz words, but actually failed to create the shift in culture and mindset required for a true Agile transformation. Others still have confined the Agile practice to their IT departments, failing to understand that the required shift must be organization-wide.  
 
Our Leading with Agile and Scrum program aims to equip business and IT leaders, executives, and managers with the needed mindset, principles, tools, and approaches to jumpstart and enable a true Agile transformation in their organization. The program will help participants understand the foundational concepts, methods, and approaches to lead the needed paradigm shifts in their organization, regardless of their role or level.
