Agilest®

Innovating products in a large company can be painfully difficult, but with the right knowledge, the process can be incredibly rewarding.

AGILEST® can guide your company to be great at delivering products your customers will want. Agilest® believes that everyone needs training, but that the content should vary by role.

With needs in mind, we offer role specific training for Scrum masters, product owners, and Agile developers. But we do not stop there. Agilest® also offers three tiers of training: Core, Advanced, and Specialized.

Agilest® Core Training

The foundation training is role specific and is designed to set-up the organization for success with agile. Our training for each of the roles is deeper and more comprehensive than the training offered by most other organizations.

Our training is driven by real world need and is designed to give each team member an understanding of what their responsibilities are.

Agilest® Advanced Training

The Agilest® upper-level training is for teams that are already using agile. The upper-level training is designed to take teams to the next level of maturity.

Agilest® Specialized Training

Agilest® Specialized training provides advanced training for specific needs. Examples of specialized training include executive training for company leaders, agile automation, agile program management, agile scaling, and DevOps.

Agile Scaling

Most organizations have situations where a single team of 5 to 9 people is just not the right size for the work that they intend to complete. That problem is what scaling solves.

Agilest® can guide the use of scaling that is tailored specifically to the needs of your organization. We can guide you to a scaling framework that does what you need it to do and shave years off of the trial and error period that companies endure when they go it alone without experienced coaching.

Agile Transformation 

Readiness Assessment

Agilest® starts every transformation with an assessment to first determine an organization’s readiness for improvement with agile.

Every organization has different challenges and with our expert assessment, we can design the most effective agile transformation plan to deliver the most improvement for every dollar you spend.

Define Strategy

Agilest® understands that companies in different industries and at different stages in their maturity lifecycle have different needs.

Not all organizations are best served by the use of agile methods at every level in their company. Knowing this, Agilest® does not have a one size fits all mentality about the way agile should be implemented.

• Tailor implementation to the organizational structure.

• Plan for governance updates needed to make Agile successful.

• Develop a budgeting model that aligns with the corporation's accounting principals.

Effective Roadmaps Are A Result Of

• Keeps the transformation aligned to the strategy

• Helps the organization understand what progress has been made

Organizational Alignment

Changing from homegrown or traditional management practices to agile methods is a fundamental shift that requires adjustments to some of the core functions in the organization to maximize the benefits that can be achieved by an effectively implemented transformation.

• Evolving the governance model

• Adopting an agile budgeting model

• Modernizing SOW delivery requirements to focus on value

Kaizen Maturity Plan

The competition is never at rest, and organizations that do not continue to strive to improve, risk being overtaken by the competitors that continually advance their processes.

Knowing this, Agilest® helps every organization that they transform to develop a center of practice to keep the changing energy alive and the company improving their practices using internal resources so that maturity continues to grow long after Agilest® has completed their part of the transformation process.
