Course Description:
'' Many project managers used to working in waterfall type environments find the transition to managing Agile projects difficult not least because an Agile project manager is expected to be a project servant rather than its master.
As well as being able to handle the need for ‘just-in-time�planning, an Agile project manager must possess a range of ‘soft-skills�for ensuring and managing the increased communication requirements.
The concept of Agile Project Leadership has been introduced to cover the Agile project management techniques and the soft-skills requirement and is a term that can be used to replace project manager just as Scrum Master replaces it in the SCRUM framework.
This 2 day Agile Project Leadership course covers the principles, processes, people and products that Agile projects generally subscribe to with an emphasis on leadership and the impact of using elements from different Agile frameworks.
Delegates may wish to sit the Agile Project Leadership Foundation Exam at the end of the course.
It should be noted that this is not an Agile Project Management course although it does include some elements of it.
