About the Program

Change isn’t coming, it’s already here. The project environment is becoming more volatile, uncertain, complex, and
ambiguous. Project management and project managers must transform and evolve in order to keep up with these
changes.

Agile has been a disruptor in the field of project management, having over 20 years of successes and benefits to
organizations that have adopted their frameworks. The Agile frameworks have proven themselves to be more adept
in dealing with this uncertainty. But Agile isn’t just about following a different way of working.

What do you need to learn, do, and become in order to continue in the current and future environment? It is a
powerful combination of knowledge, competencies, and mindset.

In an increasingly complicated project environment, this course provides participants with the knowledge needed to
not only survive but thrive.
