Learning the Essence of Agile




Learning the Essence of Agile

Google defines Agile in two ways.

1. to be able to move quickly and easily

2. relating to or denoting a method of project management, used especially for software development

While both definitions are technically correct, none of them comes even close to capturing the full import of the word

'Agile' as used in the context of a group of people coming together to collaborate to build something.

In the past 20 years or so, there has been a quiet revolution in the way products get built. This revolution has been driven by 'Agile'.  Organizations big, small and in-between have been rapidly adopting Agile. Initially, it was used to build  software applications but now Agile is used in a variety of corporate functions such as Sales, Marketing, HR and others. Not only that, major tech and non-tech companies worldwide (such as Google, Crate & Barrell, Starbucks, Nordstrom, Atlassian, etc.) require that their leadership be Agile in their leadership style.

So what is this Agile? In short, it is a way of being, a way of thinking which has spawned several highly productive project management frameworks such Scrum, Kanban, Scrum-ban, XP to name a few.

This course will deliver a deep understanding of Agile and then provide comprehensive overview of it's most well known and popular frameworks.
