Training Course Overview

Do you notice that the number of demands of you and your teams seem to be increasing? That priorities seem to change on a monthly basis or sometime even more frequently? How do we get ahead of this volatile environment which sometimes feels almost chaotic in nature?

The answer is agility.  The agile culture promotes subtle control by embracing change.  Teams are given short consistent blocks of time to commit to achieving short-term goals while management consistently review and modify the long-term strategic direction. Through the use of clear roles and responsibilities, prioritized work backlogs and team self-organization, we can separate the “what” from the “how” and allow a team to grow while always working on the most important priorities. And as the structure becomes more embedded, the team is well setup to address ever-changing priorities – because in this modern world, we may need to consistently re-prioritize to ensure we remain significant and deliver what our customer needs.
