What will I learn?

In this hands-on course, you’ll gain a holistic understanding of agility: where it comes from, what makes it work, and how to apply it in your context. You’ll experience Lean and Agile principles through exercises and simulations, and explore concepts like flow, WIP limits, prioritization, value thinking, and team practices.

Key takeaways

  1. Understand the key drivers behind agility and its success.
  2. Learn how agile practices increase business value and reduce time-to-market.
  3. Discover Scrum, Kanban, and lean principles like flow and WIP limits.
  4. Experience agile practices like estimation poker and retrospectives.

Program

This course combines short, engaging theory blocks with interactive games and exercises. You’ll explore what agility is really about—beyond the buzzwords—and try out key agile practices yourself.
