What You Will Learn

Course Description:
When an organisation embarks on an Agile journey often it will continue to need people with project management competencies. The classic project manager can successfully take on an Agile role. Being able to do that requires understanding the mindset behind the Agile approach and learning new techniques.

In this course, we map terms and concepts in the classic project management models to the corresponding ones in Agile. Often there is not a one-to-one which can cause challenges for a classic project manager and to organisations in general. We also discuss the preconditions for using an Agile approach.

Then we cover the typical new Agile roles and what the responsibilities are. In Agile the role Project Manager does not exist, but there still is a need for similar competencies. We will discuss which Agile roles take over the various responsibilities of a classic project manager.
Furthermore, based on a well-known personality model, we will discuss what personality types fit with the different Agile roles – and where the best fit is for you.

The course fee includes a 30-minute personal coaching session.
