What you’ll learn in Leading with Agility

The course focuses on real leadership capability — the skills that sit underneath effective Agile Coaching and help you operate confidently with teams and leaders.

Presence & Confidence

Develop a calm, grounded leadership presence so you can hold your own in challenging conversations without needing a title.

Coaching Upwards

Support and challenge senior stakeholders effectively, without slipping into passivity or confrontation.

Influencing Decisions

Shape thinking and guide decisions without authority, helping teams and leaders move forward with clarity.

Handling Complexity

Stay effective when things are ambiguous or political, without hiding behind process or tools when pressure rises.

Adaptive Leadership

Turn adaptive leadership ideas into practical behaviours you can use in real conversations with teams and leaders.

Trust & Credibility

Build the kind of trust where teams and leaders actively seek your input because they know you’ll help them move forward.

Scrum Masters feel the weight of leadership every day — but most have never been taught how to lead.

This course gives you the tools, language, and capability to operate credibly with leaders and step into higher-impact coaching work.
