Half-Day Course + Three-week Workshop | 9:00 AM - 1:00 PM
Time Commitment: approximately 10 hours
Learn foundational principles of agile leadership to enhance organizational flexibility, collaboration, and innovation.
In today's rapidly changing world, libraries cannot spend years working on strategic planning, only to have priorities shift overnight. Learn how to embrace uncertainty and thrive in ambiguous times by adopting an agile mindset. Through real-world case studies, hands-on exercises, and practical tools, participants will learn to focus on delivering value to users in iterative cycles, empower strong cross-functional teams, streamline current workflows and procedures through Lean process mapping, and foster a culture of adaptability and resilience within their staff.
Participants will gain experience with Agile techniques like huddles, retrospectives, and kaizen, and learn how to embrace an experimental mindset that encourages continuous improvement. This course will equip attendees with techniques from agile methodologies in a library perspective, empowering them to respond effectively to evolving challenges and opportunities, prioritize tasks, foster creativity, embrace change, and empower team members to take ownership of their work.
This course includes one half-day (4 hours) of live, online presentations from an expert speaker, as well as three weeks of a guided asynchronous workshop with facilitated peer cohorts and assignments. In this workshop, you’ll have the opportunity to practice what you’ve learned through prompted activities, share and crowdsource issues with peers, and get feedback from peers and your facilitator.
