Agile Project Management (ICP-APM)
The agile project manager role is distinct from the traditional project manager. Agile project management focuses on equipping the project manager with strategies and techniques for successful Lean and Agile project implementation. A servant leadership mindset and approach is critical to empowering agile teams to produce great results.
In this course, participants will practice the role of agile project manager as a facilitator of agile practices towards achieving desired outcomes. This course also takes a much more in-depth look at the fundamental agile concepts of adaptive planning, customer collaboration, and value-driven delivery in dynamic and sometimes highly constrained environments. In addition, topics address agile approaches to standard project management processes such as metrics, reporting, and contract management.
