About This Programme
A half-day introduction to agile for non-digital government leaders who work alongside agile teams.
If you don’t work in a Government Digital and Data role but need to understand what agile means, how it works, and what your role is in supporting agile delivery, this is the programme for you. The lightest-touch option for leaders who need awareness rather than deep capability.
What You’ll Learn
- What agile means in a government context - beyond the buzzwords and jargon
- How agile differs from traditional project delivery - and why government adopted it
- What to expect from agile teams - ceremonies, cadence, and ways of working
- Your role as a senior leader - how to support and enable agile delivery without being a practitioner
- Questions to ask - how to constructively challenge and support agile teams
- Common pitfalls - what goes wrong when senior leaders inadvertently undermine agile ways of working

SCS, G6, and senior leaders who don’t work in GDaD roles but need to understand agile. The lightest-touch option for leaders who need awareness and confidence, not technical depth.
