Many agile training companies use pre and post training assessment to get an immediate measurement of the impact of the training program.

What works best, in our view, is to encourage teams to start the application of the concepts in their actual work area immediately after the workshop and experiment with them for 3-4 weeks. We should re-group after this period for a problem resolution session with the agile coach, where implementation bottlenecks are discussed from a practitioner’s perspective. This should trigger the transformation journey, translating theory to practice. Quarterly agility assessments should be done to check agile maturity in teams.

Create buy-in – A good training program should create a pull towards agile and the excitement to explore agile ways of working for everyone involved. The trainer should focus on ‘why we are doing agile’
Role based interventions – Learning programs can start with a common understanding but then target specific roles and equip people with competencies and skills to be better in their role.
