Course Topics

Participants will learn how to adapt to new ways of working by understanding the limitations of traditional organizational structures and exploring alternatives that enhance agility. They will gain insights into designing effective cross-functional teams, aligning them with value streams, and supporting agile leadership. The course will cover redefining roles and expectations, addressing skill gaps, and embedding an Agile/Lean mindset to ensure sustainable transformation and growth. Through practical examples and strategies, participants will be equipped to drive organizational agility and deliver value efficiently.

Participants will learn to foster a culture that supports rapid learning and failure tolerance, focusing on continual feedback and collective goals rather than individual evaluations. They will explore complex adaptive systems, feedback mechanisms, intrinsic motivation, and flexible incentives, ultimately promoting a trust culture and an ownership-driven mindset. Additionally, they will understand systems thinking, the Theory of Constraints, and alternative performance assessment methods that align with Agile values. This comprehensive approach encourages self-motivation, meaningful pay structures, and the shift away from rigid ranking systems.

Learners will gain insights into creative and diverse recruitment strategies, effective interviewing techniques to reduce false positives, and methods to enhance candidate experiences. They will also learn the importance of a well-structured onboarding process that reinforces company culture and values, promoting agility and productivity.

In a rapidly changing technological landscape, fostering a continuous learning culture is vital for individual and organizational growth. Embracing a growth mindset enables a learning culture where continuous improvement is prioritized, and failure is viewed as a learning opportunity. Transitioning to a learner-centered and learner-driven approach, rather than manager-driven, is crucial for business agility. Leadership must ensure employees have dedicated time for learning, incorporating flexibility into their schedules. Utilizing industry, peer, and team-based learning, as well as adaptive learning modalities, supports diverse learning preferences and provides timely, relevant training. Ultimately, these strategies cultivate a dynamic and resilient workforce.

By applying Agile practices to HR, individuals will learn how to enable organizational agility through supportive principles, practices, and guidelines; coach teams on motivation and conflict resolution; adopt Agile methods within HR; balance culture and structure; facilitate transformational change; create a psychologically safe environment; and shift from transactional HR to people enablement, integrating HR into cross-functional teams for enhanced flexibility and collaboration.
