| Course Description: In a large organisation, progress can feel like turning a tanker around. It can feel as if there is never enough time to design and plan changes, so you just keep on using the, same old ways of doing things even though you are fully aware that they are no longer fit for purpose.
In the tech industry, teams are using new ways of designing, producing and refining as they using an approach known as agile project management. It’s principles could revolutionise the way you work by supporting your team to make improvements as they go through rapid iteration. Meaning that new and better ways of working, could be within their reach.

The webinar will cover:
