Agile: Fundamentals of Agile
Event Information
Description
Course Overview
Agile practices are the modern foundations for adaptive, flexible, and evolutionary management. With rapidly accelerating technologies and even faster consumer demands, Agile’s accelerated feedback loops and iterative processes are critical for businesses to deliver successful projects on-time, on-budget, within scope, and with the highest quality.
Individuals that can understand and apply Agile concepts are better equipped to become thought leaders and agents of change at their organization, and drive Agile initiatives to successful outcomes.
A few benefits for Agile include:
- Higher quality project outcomes built from the ground up through an iterative process, results-driven design, etc.
- Customer-focused prioritization, ensuring workflows and deliverables are aligned to deliver the highest impact
- Short, incremental value delivery, resulting in faster return on investment and faster time-to-market products
