Internationally Certified Agile HR Training
--- This training is available both as Online & Offline ---
Agility is one of the most essential competencies for corporations in the age of rapid change and development. For corporate agility, we must revolutionize our HR processes and approaches. Agile HR comes into play at this stage.
An Agile corporation consists of self-organizing and highly-disciplined teams. These teams can easily put HR’s hat on. Teams and Agile HR team organize the necessary training together, they do the recruitment together. The Agile HR transformation in corporations brings new opportunities as well. Agile HR does not change only the structure of HR, but also provides incredible opportunities to transform the whole structure into Agile.
In the journey of Agile HR, different paths are available. If the HR department has different work dynamics, then they can start working with Agile on their own. They can start applying Agile with different frameworks such as Scrum, Kanban or Agile portfolio. This way, HR projects can be visualized and,
- The decision mechanism in the HR department becomes more transparent,
- HR continues to learn and to accommodate continuously by engaging with internal customers and stakeholders.
- HR can always focus on important tasks.
Day by day, more corporations want to foster their agility to respond to changes faster and to make their customers satisfied. This means a new perspective within the company, a new mindset and new competencies in the company's human resources.
In short, agility is a way of thinking. It is neither about control nor about setting rules. It focuses on learning and predictions based on intuitions. It aims to satisfy customers through strong, self-organizing, and motivated teams. HR plays a crucial role in spreading this way of thinking.
