Get Agile in a Day
Multiple dates and times
Online, Zoom
Description
Learn how Agile methods are used in practice through group activities and personal reflection!
About This Event:
Right now a project is failing. Projects fail or suffer delays every single day. The failure of projects is almost never technology. It is because of poor management of people and tasks!
Agile project management is a way of approaching a project using small and powerful teams. These teams take greater ownership of tasks, understand the bigger picture and work on a cycle of continuous improvement to accelerate towards being the best they can be.
What Will We Cover:
This session will provide you with an overview of what Agile project management is, where it comes from and the potential power it has for small teams. In this workshop, we will be discussing how you can apply Agile to all kinds of project management, and the session will be an interactive experience for you to learn Agile and Scrum Framework concepts. Further, the day will provide you with clear and engaging demonstrations of how Agile methods are used in practice through group activities and personal reflection and we will also share some quick wins with you to help you get started on your Agile journey.
Who Should Attend:
• Anyone who is unsure if Agile is the right approach for them
• Anyone who manages a team and wants to improve productivity
• Anyone who wants to improve communication amongst a team
• Anyone who is sick of projects running past deadlines
