Agile Leadership: Introduction to Change

Colorado introduces change before comparing leaders, teams and organizations through an Agile perspective. The course asks learners to distinguish traditional and Agile approaches at several levels. It provides conceptual preparation for a later transformation plan, making it different from the capstone that expects learners to apply and coordinate those ideas.

What you will learn

• Describe the development of change-management approaches.
• Identify characteristics of an Agile leader.
• Compare traditional and Agile teams and organizations.

Who this suits

The course is labeled beginner level; about four years of business workplace experience with some leadership responsibility is helpful.

Before you enroll

Compare the leadership ideas with the people, responsibilities and constraints in your example. A framework is a prompt for reflection; its suitability depends on the situation and the evidence available.
