Agile Change Agent

Build your practical ability in Agile and change with Agile Change Agent

Participants will learn about agile ways of working and how an agile approach impacts their role and interaction with those driving and leading change. The course also equips participants with tools to ensure change initiatives are embedded, adopted and deliver benefits throughout their organizations.

Less focused on the theories of change, it is a very hands- on course full of opportunities to “see, do, learn”, packed with exercises and practical tools, tips and advice, and is a great introduction to the world of Agile and Change Management.

Understand how agile approaches impact the way change is managed and delivered, and the impact on those involved in and affected by change.
Apply techniques to identify and prioritise activities according to business value.
Manage relationships with relevant stakeholders and team members, understanding how to best engage with them through empathy and trust.
Develop strategies for building resilience and motivation, whilst managing and mitigating resistance.
Create a change that is lean and flexible, realizing benefits earlier on in the process.
Manage change for both large-scale transformations and micro-level business change projects.
Utilize pre-prepared checklists, questionnaires and models that can be tailored to specific change initiatives.

Fully accredited by APM Group International, you can study Agile Change Agent on-site or virtually.

Classroom courses, either face to face or virtual, are great for those who want to engage with the trainer and other students. The learning is intense and therefore perfect for those wanting to quickly build their skills and achieve certification.

This Agile Change Agent course will benefit anyone who has to plan, manage and participate in creating change at work. The course doesn’t assume any prior knowledge of change management or agile approaches so is suitable for all.

If you have knowledge of these areas the course will explain how what you already know fits into the structure of an effective change initiative whilst at the same time developing new skills and abilities. If you have a background in project management or business analysis this course will enable you to see where you fit into the wider community of change and where you can best apply your skills.

Training and certification will be particularly beneficial to those participating in Agile or transformational change, but aren’t necessarily responsible for leading it. These roles include:

Change Support (e.g. Programme Office)
Change ‘Agents’ (e.g. Business Change Managers)
Change Implementers (e.g. Project / Programme / Change Managers)
Change Leaders (e.g. Senior Responsible Owners)
Operational Line Managers/Staff would also benefit from a higher level of understanding
