Professional Agile Leadership Essentials PAL-E
Learn how leadership contributes to successful Agile teams and organisations. Develop your understanding of Agile leadership, organisational culture, team dynamics and continuous improvement, and explore how leaders create an environment where teams can grow and perform. Available as a hands-on, instructor-led training based on the official Professional Agile Leadership Essentials programme from Scrum.org.
Content
Many organisations invest in Agile ways of working, but find that lasting change depends on more than teams or frameworks alone. Leadership plays a crucial role in creating focus, ownership, collaboration and a culture where teams can truly excel.
In this training, you explore how leaders effectively support Agile organisations without falling back on traditional command-and-control structures. You gain insight into topics such as Agile leadership, empiricism, team empowerment, organisational culture, metrics, value creation and continuous improvement. You also discover how leaders influence behaviour, collaboration and decision-making within modern organisations.
Topics covered include servant leadership, psychological safety, purpose-driven working, stakeholder alignment and supporting self-organising teams. You also explore how leaders help teams collaborate more effectively around customer value, innovation and sustainable results.
The training is highly practical and interactive. Through case studies, reflection, group discussions and real-world examples, you actively work on recognisable leadership challenges from modern Agile organisations.
