Professional Agile Leadership is for professionals in leadership roles (including executives, managers, Scrum Masters, Product Owners, coaches, and consultants) who:

• Are responsible for the success of their product delivery programs or Agile transformations and are seeking a means to measure and demonstrate that success
• Are looking for a framework that identifies improvement areas that increase their business agility, including their time to pivot to meet new challenges and deliver customer value
• Want to help their organization embrace empiricism and experimentation to find solutions for complex problems (where more is unknown than known or the situation changes rapidly)
• They want to articulate goals and measures in a way that fosters self-management and empowers their teams to understand the connection between their work and the value their organization is providing and the customer is receiving
• Want to be more effective in how they measure success by using Agile measures rather than traditional measurement models (including the use of velocity)

The Professional Agile Leadership - Essentials course is designed for attendees who have a solid grasp of Agile practices, have read the Evidence-Based Management Guide, and desire to shift from traditional approaches to working and measurement. While specific Scrum experience is not required, the course provides leaders valuable insights on effectively supporting their Agile teams.

As a result, it serves as excellent preparation for PAL-EBM, although it is not mandatory. Additionally, our Professional Scrum Product Owner courses offer guidance for delivering value and can complement the PAL-EBM course, enabling leaders to enhance their Agile skills and knowledge.
