Agile Training With Team Building
A much faster way to implement agile principles in teams.
Adapt to changing requirements and deliver the requirements at a faster pace
There are a lot of ways to teach agile concepts to your teams but the practical implementation of these concepts takes time. With team building, agile concepts can be taught in a fun and practical way in much shorter time. People get to learn and also apply the concepts along the way.
Choose the right activity based on the most suitable framework of Agile that works for your team
Over the years, agile methodologies have been diversified into various frameworks depending upon the specific needs of the teams. Scrum framework of agile gives more flexibility to teams in dealing with project deadlines and changing requirements. Kanban framework makes it easier to visually represent the work flow of teams over various stages of product development.
We designed the following based on Scrum & Kanban frameworks of agile.
The Tailor
Based on Scrum
The Tailor is designed to demonstrate the principles of Scrum methodology that can help teams understand what it means to be truly agile in a fast paced changing environment.
In this creativity fuelled activity teams are assigned a product owner and will be given materials to design a clothing outfit for a client. The activity is divided into various fabrication rounds or sprints and each team has to demo what they were working on at the end of each sprint.
Teams have to work together in an agile manner by creatively interpreting and adapting to the clients requirements based on the questions they get to ask at the end of each sprint. Teams will be challenged with changes in the product design as they race together to bring clients vision to life.
Once teams have finished their outfits, participants come together to publicly vote for the best outfit. Teams are judged based on various criteria such as most agile, most bold and most collaborative. The Tailor is a one of kind creative activity which balances fun & practical demonstration of Agile/Scrum principles in your teams.

Why Agile
The world is rapidly evolving everyday with emerging technologies and growing needs of consumers. People are looking for more convenient ways of doing things which requires constant innovation in organisations. With growing demand, companies are looking at different ways in which they can improve productivity in their teams and deliver these requirements. Companies need to innovate fast also while being able to deliver those innovations quickly at scale.
Agile development methodologies lets you adapt and deliver the requirements dynamically without losing the stability of the entire project. Agile development began in software and it spread into various other domains such as manufacturing, supply chain management, healthcare, marketing, event management and even government related projects. Its intuitiveness in dealing with uncertainty and innovation has led to its wide adoption.
The need for agility in teams
There has been a paradigm shift in the way teams work and communicate with each other in organisations today. We are more open, diverse and outspoken with our opinions and choices. This shift has brought many advancements to the world making it safer, better and more inclusive for everyone. Teams desire to be more agile now, they want to learn things fast and solve problems quicker instead of waiting for a long time to act on a solution.
With this disruption, more and more organisations want to transform themselves into agile organisations by implementing agile methodologies in their teams. Agile is not just some concept or methodology anymore, it has become a way of thinking. When your team is agile, you can see an environmental shift in the way they work and think.
