Description
Our Foundations of Agility Masterclass is a mastery on agile mindset, establishing that agile is a mindset, not a methodology or framework. To succeed with agile, teams and organisations should focus first on “being agile” as a foundation for success in “doing agile.” Upon earning the ICAgile Certified Professional certification, you will understand the history of agile, the importance of “being” agile and “doing” agile by being agile, critical aspects of value-driven development, adaptive planning techniques, and how to cultivate collaboration with customers within the organisation, and within teams. If you are new to agile, you’ll learn all aspects of agile. Or, if you are an experienced agile practitioner, you’ll have many techniques to transition from fragile to agile.
