UNIQUE LEARNING EXPERIENCE
Our Learners quickly assimilate the concepts of Delivery with Agility to become a more Effective Leader immediately. Learning aboard Kaizen Voyager, our luxury Mediterranean Sports Motor Yacht, is a truly unique learning experience.
Learning in a classroom is something of the past, and can often put people off training.
We want to ensure that not only is the course quality second-to-none, but the experience is unforgettable, encouraging you to learn in a better, more efficient way.
As part of the experience, we feel that learning on a luxury yacht isn’t enough, which is why on both days, you will have the opportunity to dine in St. Katharine Docks for lunch, and socialise as a team, with your Learning Cohort.
That should float your boat!

DISCOVER YOUR POTENTIAL
Not just Agile but Lean Agile.
By combining the fundamentals of Lean Thinking and an Agile mindset, you will discover the amazing potential that this toolkit can provide in order to maximise the flow of value Delivery With Agility.
LEAN THINKING
Our training is founded upon Lean Thinking. This helps you to identify customer value and focus on delivering it sooner, whilst eliminating waste in your Value Stream (the things you do to deliver your products and services).
You will learn the principles of Lean Thinking and how they can significantly boost your productivity, empowering your teams to be more effective and deliver value sooner.
Our practical workshops help to get you up to speed with implementing Lean Thinking, to avoid the pitfalls that so many teams fall into.
Lean Agile, better together!
KAIZEN
Having trained and coached 100s of teams to successful outcomes, we have seen how and why teams are most likely to fail. The root causes are commonplace, but they are addressable. Importantly, they are avoidable, with the correct training and coaching.
Unlike other courses, our training helps you to identify the common root causes of failure and uses them as a Learning Tool for you to get it right more often.
With Lean Agile we learn from failure, make transparent what we do, inspect the feedback and adapt our behaviours to continually improve, as we seek perfection.

LEARN FROM FAILURE IN ORDER TO SUCCEED
Our Delivery With Agility training focuses on the areas where most Agile implementations fail.
In most cases of failure, the root cause is discovered to be failure of leadership in actively playing their part in the culture change of their organisations.
Don’t be one of those statistics!
Unlike many Agile consultancies, we have a delivery-first mindset but that can only be realised through a People-first, then Value-first culture.
Having trained and coached 100s of teams to successful outcomes, we have seen how and why teams are most likely to fail. The root causes are commonplace, but they are addressable. Importantly, they are avoidable, with the correct coaching.
Our Delivery With Agility training, is a simple, back-to-basics, common sense approach to equipping you with the right tools that empower your teams to get the job done.
It is less about managing your people and more about leading your people to become leaders themselves.
Our open Learning Cohort discussions, together with the practical hands-on workshop exercises aboard Kaizen Voyager, will help you to DISCOVER YOUR POTENTIAL as a Leader and deliver value to your customers sooner.
