Agile and Hybrid Project Delivery

Many organisations across the region now run agile teams alongside traditional capital projects, and this course equips project professionals to work confidently in both worlds. Delegates practise Scrum and Kanban mechanics through simulated sprints, then learn to blend agile ceremonies with stage-gated governance where donors, regulators or boards require formal milestones. The course closes with a workshop on designing a hybrid delivery model for the participant's own organisation.

Course objectives

  • Run a sprint from backlog refinement through review and retrospective using Scrum roles and artefacts
  • Apply Kanban flow metrics to identify bottlenecks and improve team throughput
  • Design a hybrid governance model that satisfies both agile teams and stage-gate sponsors
  • Write user stories and acceptance criteria that reduce rework and scope disputes
  • Coach a team through the transition from a command-and-control to a self-organising working style

Who should attend

  • Scrum masters and agile coaches supporting delivery teams
  • Project and programme managers introducing agile into a traditionally-run organisation
  • Product owners and business analysts working with development teams
  • IT and digital transformation leads
