People do incredible things when they are empowered to apply their talents with dignity.
👆Managers and Leaders often hold the keys to unlocking the true potential of their teams.👆
I’ve worked with dozens of companies, hundreds of teams and thousands of team members - and dignity is the one ingredient that differentiates the the teams and organizations who find a lasting balance between business and employee success, and those who struggle with mediocre business results and floundering teams. I’ve found this to be true at the largest Bank in Canada, all the way down to the small 20 person technology start up who has yet to find product-market fit.
In this two day class, leaders will develop a deep understanding of the role they play in creating the conditions for a successful agile environment. Leaders and managers are critical enablers in helping their organizations be successful, yet the role of leaders and managers in an agile organization can be quite different from what they are used to. This workshop uses a combination of instruction and team-based exercises to help participants learn how to form and support agile teams to achieve better results, and how to lead the cultural and behavioral changes that organizations must make to reap the benefits of an agile product delivery approach.
The PAL-E class is highly interactive and we use little to no PowerPoint. Instead, we use modern training and facilitation techniques to deliver a class that always results in actionable learning. You will not be bored, and I can promise you that you will not be able to multi-task during the class, so please plan accordingly.
