Professional Agile Leadership Essentials

Understand your role in enabling agilty with our PAL-E training

The Professional Agile LeadershipTM (PAL) Essentials is a 2-day hands-on workshop that uses a combination of instruction and hands-on exercises to help managers and other leaders who work directly with agile teams understand how to best support, guide, and coach their teams to improve their Agile capabilities.

The workshop provides a foundation for the role that leaders play in creating the conditions for a successful Agile transformation. Leaders and managers are critical enablers in helping their organizations be successful, yet their role in an agile organization can be quite different from what they are used to. 

This workshop uses a combination of instruction and team-based exercises to help participants learn how to form and support agile teams to achieve better results, and how to lead the cultural and behavioural changes that organizations must make to reap the benefits of an Agile product delivery approach.
