Course Overview:

Becoming an agile organization is a profound transformation that requires senior leaders, middle managers, and agile team members to change the way that they organize their work, manage that work, and measure the results of the work. Agile teams cannot do this on their own; they need help from the entire organization. The changes for all involved are profound, but so are the results when everyone’s goals and ways of working are aligned.

This training focuses on agile leadership, the principles underpinning it, and ways to implement agile leadership in practice. Concretely, the focus is put on the concept of agility and on ten principles of agile leadership that can benefit the navigation of complex environments. The program describes how agility leadership ties into organizational practice relating to leadership, teamwork, processes and strategic tools, and describes which methods can be used to reap benefits and keep on top of the challenges associated with agility – for employers and employees alike

IN HOUSE AND ONLINE TRAINING

While both In-House and Online training can present with cost-effectiveness and time-efficacy, there are some very specific differences between in-house courses and those based online.
The demand for additional courses by individuals or groups of people is increasing. Still, it depends entirely on the preferences of a person what type of training he or she wants to receive. Online courses and in-house training carry some similarities but they are considered to exhibit some very pivotal differences too. Despite that, both types of learning can be really beneficial for attendees.
