About This Workshop
Many organizations are using management practices built on thinking from the early 1900’s. These practices were proven to work well for unskilled, manual labour workforces where thinking was separated from doing.
Unfortunately, these practices no longer have a place in today’s modern organization, especially organizations that are moving towards Agile. There is a new set of skills required to lead an Agile organization.
Watch a short video about Management 3.0.
