Training
No matter what your currently level of understanding of Lean-Agile (beginning to expert), I offer training and certification courses on a wide varity of Lean-Agile subjects. Training is aimed at establishing the basic knowledge you need to have in a particular subject area.
In addition, successful training results in benefits for:
- Individuals: Training result in changes in behavior of the people attending aimed at helping them be more effective in the Lean-Agile environment.
- Organizations: A consistent set of training across the enterprise can help establish standards of nomenclature and understanding which aids in the transformation of an organization.
The training can be provided on-site or, as is more common today, remotely using virtual on-line tools (e.g. video confercing such as Zoom or Teams and online content tools such as Mural and Kahoot.) In eirther case the training is engaging and interactive.
The following list shows some of the traditional training organizations would leverage as part of a transformation to Lean-Agile:
