PAL EBM - Professional Agile Leadership™ Evidence-Based Management™ (EN)

Description

Set strategic and tactical goals. Measure current and potential customer value and your organizational agility.

A one-day introduction to the Evidence-Based Management™ framework, focused on setting goals and measuring and improving organizational agility.

With markets and customer needs constantly changing, organizations need information and evidence that helps them adapt quickly to new challenges and opportunities so that they can deliver greater value and achieve true business agility. Yet often organizations that use Agile product development techniques use traditional management approaches, expecting leaders to set firm long-term goals and manage progress toward them with dashboards of static metrics.

We bring you this course in collaboration with ScrumDōjō.

Goals

• Understand the essential aspects of goals and measures and how they influence behaviors and an organization’s culture and values
• Help organizations embrace empiricism as a leadership approach. Using experimentation to incrementally steer toward the organization’s goals
• An appreciation for how goals and trust act together to enable autonomy, transparency, and value delivery
• Correlate market leadership and sustainability to curiosity, adaptation, and empiricism
• Understand how to use EBM and its KVAs to focus measurements on improving market value and operational capabilities

Target

• Are responsible for the success of their product delivery programs or Agile transformations and are seeking a means to measure and demonstrate that success
• Are looking for a framework that identifies improvement areas that increase their business agility, including their time to pivot to meet new challenges and deliver customer value
• Want to help their organization embrace empiricism and experimentation to find solutions for complex problems (where more is unknown than known or the situation changes rapidly)
• Want to articulate goals and measures in a way that fosters self-management and empower their teams to understand the connection between their work and the value their organization is providing and customer is receiving
• Want to be more effective in how they measure success by using Agile measures rather than traditional measurement models (including the use of velocity)
