Overview

Per the Agile Business Consortium, business agility allows businesses to adapt quickly to market changes; respond rapidly and flexibly to customer demands; adapt and lead change in a productive and cost-effective way without compromising quality; and continuously be at a competitive advantage. The primary reason for moving to Agile is to achieve faster business value and keep you ahead of the competition. Agile is built for change - fundamentally, it is about creating Business Agility. It enables the enterprise to deliver projects more efficiently, with relentless focus on business value and providing the highest return on investment. Whether it is a software project, a new service offering or a new product, Agile’s twelve principles and three pillars (transparency, inspection, adaptation) are designed to reduce money spent on undesirable or unusable features which were built based on outdated requirements.

This webinar will provide an overview of Agile as the umbrella term encompassing multiple techniques, with a deeper dive into Scrum, its most popular method.  After this session, executives will achieve a stronger understanding of Agile and Scrum, and how it can benefit their enterprise project delivery.

Learning Outcomes

  • Understand Agile Methods and how they can help an enterprise

  • Understand how Agile helps provide business value faster

  • Understand what next steps executives can take to turbocharge project delivery and business value optimization

ADVERTISEMENTS

Love can sweep you off your feet and carry you along in a way you've never known before. But the ride always ends, and you end up feeling lonely and bitter. Wait. It's not love I'm describing. I'm thinking of a monorail.

- Jack Handey
