We will teach you the basics of agile methods. You will understand agile principles and we will guide you through the basic Agile approaches (Scrum, Kanban and others). You will learn where agile methods are, and are not, appropriate.

Agile is a very often mentioned term in management nowadays. It is a new trend that allows for efficient and flexible project management and the management of entire companies. The advantage is that it does not require the rigid following of an outdated plan but provides techniques and tools that allow responding to the ever-changing world and demands. It is based on a primary focus on the important things, openness, communication, collaboration with the customer, and flexibility.

Our training will introduce you to agile principles and approaches. You will leave knowing what the term means and includes, what the different agile methods are, and, most importantly, you will be able to recognize in which situations a particular method is appropriate or, conversely, where it cannot be used. You will learn what is important for agile transformation. Agile comes from the world of IT, but we will focus on its practical application in other areas (development, innovation, project management, and corporate management).
