HOW TO SUCCESSFULLY USE AGILE MINDSET, SCRUM AND KANBAN?

Agile approaches are spreading like wildfire in the business world. There are enthusiasts and detractors, but whichever group you fall into, it's clear that it's a mindset worth understanding.

For those who are new to agile project management, our one-day programme will give you a comprehensive overview of the basics, practical application of agile values and principles. During the programme, we will review the basics of agile, as well as in-depth coverage of Scrum and Kanban methodological approaches, with exercises to support understanding.

Based on project management trends, the future will be shaped by mixed project portfolios, so it is inevitable that agility, or agile roles and tools will remain an unknown territory for project team members and managers.
