"This is a course that everyone must go through to understand what needs to be done to build the organization that is expected by everyone working on it. We have seen technical guys being promoted to management roles without an understanding of the role itself and what they must do to get it correct which they turn into dictatorship instead of playing the actual leadership. I am going to recommend this to many individuals within our space to ensure everyone understands the impact of agile and the power it can bring to the team." - Tharollo N.
