The Craft of Highly Effective Agile Leadership

Based on the learning objectives from the iCAgile, Leading with Agility workshop, this ½ day version will explore the craft of agile leadership in guiding your journey to becoming a catalyst leader. Along the way, we'll explore the why of leading with agility, how to develop and grow your personal agility, tactics for developing and deepening your organizational relationships, and approaches for leading cultural and organizational transformation. Critical topics include your responsibility in shaping a culture that is inclusive, safe, empowered, aligned, and results/impact-focused. We also focus on the importance of providing Radical Candor in all directions and how to identify and leverage your strengths as an inspirational leader who truly walks their talk. And organizational dynamics like scaling, teaming models, and organizational alignment will also be covered. This is a collaborative workshop, so you'll get several chances to engage with peers in your learning journey. You'll leave the workshop with new insights and a roadmap for improving your own agile leadership chops.
