Description for Our Journey to Mastering Agile Leadership
We’re excited about our newest program!
Leadership is required to adopt and support the Agile framework; it also requires an acute awareness of the environment, and understanding the processes that foster innovation and creativity.
Journey to Mastering Agile Leadership (for leaders)
To create an effective Agile leadership coaching process, we married the values, principles and mindset of organizational agility, including those recommended by frameworks like Scrum and SAFe, with PeopleTek’s unique coaching model for a transformational journey. Starting from developing an acute awareness of themselves and their leadership style, leaders will learn to embrace and catalyze an Agile mindset, develop the language to lead, guide, and sustain agility, apply and add an array of tools, techniques and resources to their Agile Leader’s playbook, and hone their ability to exercise an adaptive leadership style.
Journey to Mastering Team Agility (for Agile teams)
Unleash the full potential of your Agile team by leveraging and aligning each individual team members; talents, skills and interests to your organizations goals. Accelerate your team’s maturity towards high performance, cohesiveness and resilience in concert with the various agile frameworks, such as Scrum, SAFe, etc.
