I’m giving the full-day workshop Assessing your Agility at Stretch 2020 on February 12 in Budapest, Hungary. Ticket sales has started: Workshop: Assessing Your Agility.

Assessing your Agility

There isn’t a silver bullet or standard route to increase your agility, you have to find your own way. Copying a model to become agile won’t help, and imposing agile upon people isn’t an effective approach. What does work is empowering your teams to help them find out how agile they are and providing them with exercises and games to set course for their own agile journey.

In the workshop assessing your agility, you will practice games and exercises to explore how agile your teams are. Next, you’ll learn how to create an “agile map” that inspires you with ideas for increasing your agility and provides suggestions on where to go next on your agile journey.

We’ll be playing The Agile Self-Assessment Game, a serious game used by teams and organizations to self-assess their agility. Playing the game enables professionals to reflect on collaboration and team interworking and agree upon the next steps for their agile journey. With this game, they can discover how agile they are and what they can do to increase their agility to deliver more value to their customers and stakeholders.

In this workshop, you will experience different playing formats of The Agile Self-assessment Game. You’ll hear about the importance of pre-selecting cards to create focused card decks and find out about different exercises that can be used to self-assess and play your agile journey.

What will you learn:

• Explore what agile and agility means and the benefits that they can bring
• Understand the power of engagement and invitation-based agile adoption approaches
• Experience how you can self-assess the agility of teams and organizations
• Play the Agile Self-assessment Game using different playing formats and card decks
• Learn ways for planning and traveling your own agile journey

The workshop Assessing your Agility is based on the Agile Self-assessment Game. All attendees will get a free downloadable copy of the Agile Self-Assessment Game and the ebook ‘The Agile Self-assessment Game’ (value $30).
