Agile Leader Online Course

In this course you will learn what an agile leader is or what agile leadership actually means and how it differs from regular good management.

The answers we found might be surprising. If you are a great manager, i.e. someone who is great at both developing a business and developing people in an uncertain environment, you are most likely a great Agile Leader already.

For us, being an Agile Leader is all about having the ability to develop individuals, teams, and organizations in today’s VUCA environment. Most likely volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity won’t become less going forward… so the skills to deal with this environment will become more and more relevant.

Great Agile Leaders understand that the only way to address these challenges is through radical empowerment, which requires radical enablement. Great Agile Leaders know that letting people make decisions without them having the skill nor the context for decision making is a recipe for disaster. Great Agile Leaders have the ability to strategically align their people, enable them, i.e., build the capabilities, and empower them, i.e., trust them to make the right calls.
