Leadership, Agile and Scrum Training and Coaching

Leadership, Agile and Scrum Training and Coaching with Michigan Technology Services

Michigan Technology Services offers instructor-led Leadership, Agile and Scrum courses and coaching through partnerships with a number of Certified and Professional Scrum Trainers and Leadership Agility consultants. Our guides and trainers are among the most experienced educators and coaches within the Scrum Alliance, Scrum.org and Scaled Agile communities.

In a pre-Covid world our training would take place at our location in the Farmington Hills/Novi area, 20 miles outside of Detroit, or onsite at your location anywhere around the world. Our Agile workshops and Agile coaching sessions are now offered both online/virtually, reducing your need to travel - and in-person at your location.

While many trainers used to fly into metro Detroit to deliver a class, and then leave, we live here and support the local Business and Agile community.   We continue to sponsor local conferences and well-attended Meetups. We have successfully run Leadership, Business Agility, Agile and Scrum courses for countless teams from the Great Lakes area -- and across the globe.

Why Scrum? Why Leadership Agility?

Scrum is one of the most widely adopted agile frameworks. It is a simple, yet powerful way to boost team productivity, elevate quality, and accelerate project delivery. Our courses cover pragmatic practices for long and short-range planning, project execution, and progress reporting. They provide an examination of the project lifecycle as well as an in-depth exploration of roles, ceremonies, and artifacts. Exercises, case studies, and examples are interwoven into each class to illustrate principles and practices.

Leadership Agility helps align leaders and creates a shared focus. One of our goals is to teach behaviors that support increased effectiveness. This helps individuals and teams hit business objectives, leading to successful results, outcomes and sustained profits.

There are numerous Leadership, Agile and Scrum workshops available. The most popular foundational and advanced courses are:

Organizational Agility 360 Assessment

Is your organization Agile?  Our organizational Agility 360 Assessment evaluates the culture, structure and processes of your organization to inform you of your current agile effectiveness. It will also help guide your agile transformation. It outlines those areas aligned and misaligned with agility to help leadership prioritize and steer effectively. While most organizations do agile in some form, most are challenged in effectively scaling it and growing it within their organization to consistently drive business results. Call for details.
