Course Overview

Are you looking to make your team more responsive, your projects more efficient or your organisation more adaptable to change? Do you want to apply agile principles but aren’t sure where to begin? Whether you're a current leader, aspiring manager or team member ready to step up, this course will show you how to adopt and apply agile leadership in any setting.

Agile leadership is not about hierarchy – it's about mindset, action and creating the right conditions for team success. This course will guide you through what agility really means in practice, how to apply it in different contexts and how to lead teams with greater cohesion, focus and speed. You’ll explore the values behind agile, reflect on how these relate to your current approach and learn how to embed them in your everyday work.

You’ll discover what makes an organisation agile, how to recognise opportunities for agile thinking in your own environment and how to overcome common cultural and structural barriers. You’ll also learn how to define leadership goals using SMART techniques, assess your own emotional intelligence and develop the influencing and conflict resolution skills needed to lead in dynamic environments.

Throughout the course, you’ll explore agile tools like Scrum and Kanban and understand how to use them for effective project management. Using the downloadable Agile Leadership Plan, you’ll turn insights into action with structured reflection, feedback exercises and team assessments.

By the end of this course, you’ll have a clear strategy to lead with agility – even without a formal leadership title. You’ll know how to identify areas for change, influence others and guide your team towards higher performance, faster decision-making and greater adaptability.
