Business Agility

The Business Driven Software Development webinar series

Business Agility enables an organization to respond quickly to external forces (such as new market opportunities and competitive forces) as well as to respond quickly to new insights attained internally.

While many organizations have achieved the local optimizations of more effective teams, few have achieved agility at the organizational level. Even when team agility has been achieved, if improvements to how the business is selecting their product enhancements isn’t done, overall return on investment of software development may not have significantly improved.

This series is organized around “roles” - Executives to Team Leads – so each person in an organization can be introduced to what “they” need to know to achieve business agility.

FREE Webinar Series – 7 sessions:

  • Session 1 – An Overview
  • Session 2 - Product Portfolio Management
  • Session 3 – Where to Start Your Agile Transition
  • Session 4 – Team Agility: Scrum or Kanban?
