Welcome to Building High-Performance Teams in an Agile Framework. In
this course, we will explore what it really means to build and sustain
high-performing teams in modern Agile and product-focused environments.
As organizations increasingly move away from traditional, temporary
project structures and toward continuous product delivery, the way teams
are formed, led, and supported must evolve as well. Aligned with the
PMBOK® Guide Eighth Edition, this course focuses on the principles,
mindsets, and human-centered practices that enable teams to consistently
deliver value. We will examine leadership behaviors, team dynamics,
emotional intelligence, stewardship, and collaboration, and look at how
these elements come together to support both co-located and distributed
Agile teams. This latest version represents a significant evolution in
the discipline of project and product management. This is an evolution,
not a replacement. Project and product management are evolving
disciplines. As such, the body of knowledge that encapsulates its best
practices, principles, and techniques should also grow. The PMBOK
emphasizes principles over prescriptive processes, encouraging
practitioners to adapt their approach based on context, value delivery
needs, and human factors. This course reflects that same principle-based
mindset.
