Training description:

What is the Management 3.0 Agile Team & Agile People Leadership?

For people who have already completed the Management 3.0 Foundation™ accredited training and who are looking for further knowledge and inspiration by going even deeper into the practical use of the idea of ​​modern leadership, a bundle consisting of 2 trainings was created:

• Management 3.0 Agile Team Leadership™
• Management 3.0 Agile People Leadership™
  
  

The Management 3.0 Agile Team Leadership™ training program is focused on supporting and shaping high-performing teams, in particular the role of a leader in shaping the right conditions for self-organization and a growth mindset. During the workshop, you will learn and practice valuable methods that build community and belonging, as well as experience the spectrum of techniques for working on bidirectional feedback. This and many other topics will allow you to shape an environment conducive to the engagement and effectiveness of teams.

On the other hand, the Management 3.0 Agile People Leadership™ training program addresses aspects that help attract talent, creating a clear organization’s purpose, appropriate recruitment processes for onboarding people matching the values and organizational culture. In addition, to maintain talent retention, you will learn and practice valuable methods of developing emotional intelligence among leaders, as well as designing modern systems of rewards and incentives.

During the training, each participant will be able to define the challenges faced by the 3.0 leader, then diagnose in which areas he triumphs and in which he still needs development. You will leave the classroom with a set of actions for yourself and for your organization, developed during the training based on your own experience.

Who is behind this?

Management 3.0 was created by a specialist and enthusiast in the field of management Jurgen Appelo, who published a book of the same title in 2010. Since then, Management 3.0 has become a global movement associated with a new reflection and approach to management.

Over 400 facilitators support the development of management every day around the world by organizing practical training that offer games, simple tools and best practices.
