The VUCA (Volatile, Uncertain, Complex, Ambiguous) world from a decade ago introduced new fundamentals of leadership, technological advancements that fully opened up a digital world, and the birth of an Agile culture.

Through its advancements, Agile has moved from a stereotypical technology methodology to a far more flexible and broad principle suited for almost all businesses and organisations. And then came the pandemic. The VUCA world quickly morphed into a BANI (Brittle, Anxious, Nonlinear, Incomprehensible) world. Leaders are at the mercy of chaos. The need to counter unpredictable outcomes called for resilience, mindfulness, empathy, and innovation.

Agile is now more than a methodology with rigid principles. It is a mindset. One that invites growth and celebrates collaborative success. And in this ever-changing global scenario, behaviour and intuition will play a huge part. Addressing the gap between management styles and team dynamics that formed over the last 10-20 years is now essential. Enter Management 3.0.

What is this training?

Management 3.0 is a mindset combined with a constantly updated collection of games, tools, and practices to help teams, individual contributors, and leaders understand the new dynamics driving resources in an organisation by answering crucial questions;

• How can we motivate our teams/workers?
• How can we change the organisation’s culture?
• How can we change the mindset of managers?
• How can we get teams to take responsibility?
• How can we improve teamwork and collaboration?
• How can we get managers to trust their teams?
• How can we make the business more agile?

This 4-day interactive online workshop is highly recommended if you want to build knowledge in Agile mindset for creating and leading new age organisations.
