The North-South Metro originally had a budget of €1.7 billion.
Now it’s expected to cost €3.1 billion.
Au! That’s close to double.
It’s not just public projects that see their costs explode like fireworks on Liberation Day, it happens to Amsterdam-based organisations all the time.
Many never even approach completion.
And a large reason for this is their planning being as rigid as a frozen herring.
With increasing competition from companies across Europe, Asia, and, well, the whole world, it’s more important than ever for Dutch enterprises to be as fluid as possible.
As a wise man once said, “it’s not the plan that is important, it’s the planning”.
That’s what Agile is all about.
It’s adapting to the game plan on the fly like Het Oranje.
It’s about having the flexibility of an outdoor yoga class in the Oosterpark.
We’ve worked with companies like Microsoft, Standard Chartered and Electrolux and can show you how adopting the Agile philosophy will help you make best use of your valuable time and resources.
We’ll help you to break down projects into meaningful milestones, show you how to use the feedback from each one and overcome any obstacles you encounter along the way.
Our pool of highly-skilled talent is based all over Europe, and they’re ready to embrace the mindset that’s helped the likes of Netflix, Uber and Spotify consistently find the back of the net like Van Persie.
If the rate of change is faster outside your walls than inside your walls, then your organization needs to adapt in order to survive.
Agile is about adaptability.
It’s about flexibility.
It’s about delivering value one small piece at a time.
Agile welcomes changing requirements, even late in a project.
Agile encourages creativity, motivates teams, and empowers them to respond to feedback as they go, so that precious time and resources aren’t wasted.
However, Agile is much more than a methodology.
Agile supports our need to be human at work: to belong, to learn, to do, to create, to grow, to improve, and to interact with other people. It makes navigating change your organization’s competitive advantage.
While many organizations suffer from analysis paralysis, and instead opt to hold lots of meetings, agile helps you move forward, and take the lead. Become an adaptable organization that does more doing than talking.
Our agile training can be delivered face to face, online or via a blended delivery model and can be customised to your organization’s unique requirements.
Participants are encouraged to bring real-world projects to the training and apply concepts learned in real-time to generate measurable business outcomes.
