IGNITE AGILITY®

Our experience proves that in order to make any change permanent, multiple efforts must come together:

Initial Conversation:  Doing work differently will cause change to your organization.  Are you ready for this?  Is your Team ready for this?
Why/Metrics:  What is your definition of success?  Why are you in business?  How do you measure success?  Let's find your top metrics so we know what to impact.
Assessment:  Where is your organization today?  This is your baseline.  In order to understand if we are achieving our goals, we have to know where we are starting
Customized Training Plan:  You cannot copy another organization's transformation.  Your culture, your teams, your products are different.  We will build a customized training plan that will produce the "slow boil" change that is needed for a long-lasting impact.  
Leadership Workshop:   Transformations will only go as far as the Leaders are willing to take it.  This training will get Leaders together to make sure we are all on the same page.  Then we will produce a list of impediments that the Leaders will take responsibility for removing in order to help their Teams be more successful.  
Agile Team Bootcamp:  In 3-days, a full Team will build the Product Vision, Roadmap, Product Backlog, Sprint Backlog and start Sprinting!  This workshop combines instruction and exercises to give the team the opportunity to learn and work on REAL WORK!  
Coaching on-site & real time for the Product Owner, Scrum Master, Leadership, and the Development Team.

The Outcome: 

  • In 12 weeks, your Team will be trained, coached and have delivered 4-5 Sprints of work.
