About this training

Becoming an Agile organisation is a profound transformation that requires senior leaders, middle managers, and Agile team members to change how they organise their work, manage that work, and measure the work results.

Professional Agile Leadership Essentials™ is a 16 hour 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 leaders' role in creating the conditions for a successful business transformation with Agile. Leaders and managers are critical enablers in helping their organisations be successful. Yet, the role of leaders and managers in an Agile organisation 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 lead the cultural and behavioural changes that organisations must make to reap the benefits of an Agile product delivery approach.

There are no set prerequisites to attend the course. However, a solid understanding of Scrum and Agile fundamentals is recommended.

Awesome SCRUM with Meirik

This was my third Meirik course
This was my third Meirik course, and they have all been of the utmost quality. The Meirik trainers are highly knowledgeable and very skilled at delivery, maintaining a high level of energy and participation. The use of break-out rooms and virtual whiteboards delivered a learning environment that in some ways surpassed physical training. Highly recommended.

Meirik - always the best experience
Learning with Meirik trainers is always the best experience. They, besides their knowledge, know how to find the best pace to gain the information. They can "feel" what will be the best way to conduct the training. For sure! I'll back to the Meirik for more.
