    BE agile, not only DO agile

    We see companies spending enormous time and money on
    implementing agile practices, training scrum masters or hiring
    agile coaches. However, despite all the efforts, 9 out of 10 agile
    transformations fail to generate capability to adapt to changing
    market conditions.

    What they often miss is preparing their people for the
    challenges, tasks and skills of the new roles.

    An organization, team, or even a person does not become agile
    simply after completing a formal course or program. At least not
    until they are able to implement the agile principles in their
    everyday reality.

    That is why they often get stuck at the level of doing agile,

    not being agile.

    Insight 1

    A new approach needs new mindset

    We live in a VUCA (volatile, uncertain, complex,
    ambiguous) world. We experience this around us every day.

    It is important to recognize that agile operation is not
    merely a fashion trend, but one of the ways to overcome
    challenges we face in turbulent times.

    This recognition helps to handle the resistance of
    colleagues to agile transformation, especially with
    widespread organizational reluctance to change.

    To support companies in initiating this change and
    developing the proper mindset, we offer a highly engaging,
    game-based learning approach – the VUCA Challenge
    program.

    During this program participants experience and
    understand the challenges of the VUCA world, learn how
    to deal with these challenges through various tools and
    techniques, and practice team and individual routines
    based on the agile approach.

    Insight 2

    Agile and not agile at the same time?

    Agile methodology and agile project management gain
    increasing popularity. The method originated in software
    development, but is now used by more and more
    companies outside IT as well.

    However, despite its many advantages, an agile approach
    should not be used for every company and every part of
    business.

    For many companies it is best to maintain their traditional
    operating model, while taking advantage of the agility in
    selected projects.

    For that they must identify suitable areas to deploy agile
    practices and teach people how to do agile in an
    organisation which is both agile and traditional.

    Work with a Learning Architect

    Each Blended Learning program is exceptional in its kind.
    Its structure and content are determined not only by
    customer needs and participant preferences, but also by
    technical possibilities and constraints as well.

    Expected results can be achieved in several ways and
    methods, from which we need to find the most appropriate
    ones. The wide range of different learning methods and
    tools can make it difficult to choose and find the best
    solution.

    This is what Learning Architects can support you with.
    DEVELOR’s Learning Architects assess the needs and map
    the specifics to design the most suitable learning program
    for you, and to make each program a unique learning
    experience.
