This program is designed to deepen your agile leadership skills through practical use and knowledge of the most relevant agile leadership topics as e.g. leading change, taking decision under uncertainty, building high performance teams.

Together with other participants, in a group up to 12 you will learn concrete tools and techniques, design your own experiments and try them in your organization. You will have a chance to reflect it with your peers and discuss with them how to bring these topics into your organization. We offer also additional 1-1 coaching with one of the trainer to support you individually on that journey.

For whom is the program best suitable?

Leaders at all levels. This course aims to build everyday essential skills to lead people in organizations on their way to agility.

Prerequisites: Basic knowledge of agile principles and frameworks as Scrum/Kanban/Lean.

Program Overview
