For those new to Agile and Lean, or looking for a refresher, The Agilist provides Agile Introductory training. It’s a rich, stimulating introduction to the agile & lean mindsets and ways of working.
It leaves attendees with a deep appreciation of how agile and lean can help their organisation meet its challenges and opportunities in a fast-changing world.
Participants explore how they can be the change-agents to influence their organisations to be more value-focused, collaborative and effective. It allows them to support their teams to become more responsive to market demands and test their assumptions continuously.
This course has been run dozens of times for different organisations, such as those in the recruitment sector, and firms in the FTSE 100.
It’s typically a one-day course. It can be customised to be delivered in as little as two hours.

The training also includes activities such as icebreakers and exercises which help demonstrate theory and application.

It’s not about IT per se
Agile outside of IT is growing, so the material and the training are not related to IT per se. For over a year the training has been provided to leaders, middle-management and teams who aren’t necessarily building software products and services.
