Global Leadership Development Program

Applied Agility in Leadership

This leadership development and coaching program expands leadership competencies learned in the introductory Agility in Leadership workshop. Focused on the top half of our Agile Leadership Compass​™ ​, the Applied Agility in Leadership program improves self-awareness, situational adaptiveness, social connectedness, and strategic orientation to improve leadership capacity. This portion of our leadership series vertically develops leaders at every level for increased awareness, balance, adaptivity, engagement, and empowerment in highly complex, rapidly changing environments.

The Applied Agility in Leadership program is offered in two parts — each span three months — providing for immersive learning, application, and practice: Developing a Growth Mindset and Developing Catalyst Behaviors.

Applied Agility in Organization: Shaping Culture for Business Agility

This program offers immersive learning, application, and practice. This program helps leaders identify and shape organizational culture to enable, support, and grow agile ways of working. It builds upon the learning from the Agility in Organizations workshop by leveraging all of the tools and techniques to identify and shape positively impactful organizational change.

Focused on the bottom half of our Agile Leadership Compass™, the Applied Agility in Organizations program exposes, aligns and directs leaders toward improved business agility through exploration of values. Leaders will run experiments to shape the culture to improve business performance and organizational health.

This workshop meets the learning objectives of the Scrum Alliance Certified Agile Leadership 2 (CAL 2) Advanced Education, Validated Practice (AEVP) and Peer Workshop (PW) Programs.

Both programs are offered as a public program twice a year, starting in March and September.

Developing Leaders at Work

“The timing of the program was perfect. Not only was I able to learn techniques and use them, I also had a support system from my cohort.  I was learning, living and trying these methods on a daily basis.

I was able to practice what I was learning. I am happy to walk away with knowledge and confidence, that when other issues arise, I will be strong enough to know my foundation and where to begin.”

Michelle Simonkis, CAL 2 Graduate
