We often think we need to learn a new process, tip or trick in order to impress someone, get promoted or produce excellence. However, usually we need to change our beliefs. Our beliefs are chronic thoughts that we think often that then subconsciously restrict and control how we act.

This short course shows how to hack your behaviours by jumping to the belief part of the cycle not the behaviour part - that will naturally follow.

We mistakenly believe - we act a certain way (do), which gives us these great results (get) and then we gain the ability to 'be' this new person (be.) However, the reality is we need to become the person fist - adopt the standards and worldview/beliefs of that person and then our behaviours (actions) will naturally fall in line and the improved results will follow.

Are you struggling with implementing Agile in your organization? Is the change too prescriptive? Are your teams overburdened and less productive but still too resistant for a revolutionary change?

Choose the “Alternative Path to Agility” and implement an evolutionary and humane Change Management Method which doesn’t change your process but improves it.

The Kanban Method provides pragmatic, actionable, evidence-based guidance for successful evolutionary change. It starts with what you do now and respects current roles, responsibilities and job titles. This allows organizations to evolve business processes gradually, define and use relevant metrics to measure progress, and significantly reduce the risk associated with complex change programs.

If your team is overwhelmed, Kanban can help you to get your work under control. Kanban is a new technique for dynamically managing your process and revealing bottlenecks.

This training provides the skills and knowledge you need to apply Kanban in your work and learn how to determine what to work on now, what to leave until later and what to take off the to-do list forever.
