<h2>Integrating Design Thinking, Lean and Agile: On-Demand</h2>
<p>This program provides an overview of Design Thinking, Lean Startup and Agile methods and illustrates how each should be applied and integrated into the journey of an idea all the way to business value realization.</p>
<p>Developing an innovative idea into a stage of business value realization is a long and tedious journey; it involves different types of thinking and working at different stages of the life of the idea. Broadly speaking, this journey can be classified into 3 stages: deep understanding of user needs and innovating solutions; experimenting with a solution concept through prototyping and validating; and implementing the solution prototype into a commercial solution. Design Thinking, Lean Startup and Agile methods fit perfectly into these 3 stages.</p>
<p>This program provides an overview of each of these methods and illustrates how each should be applied and integrated into the journey of an idea all the way to business value realization.</p><h3>What You Will Learn</h3>
<p>At the end of this program, you will be able to:</p>
<ul>
<li>Identify the end-to-end scenario of driving a business through innovation and when each method among Design Thinking, Lean and Agile would be appropriate.</li>
<li>Gain an overview of Design Thinking, Lean startup and Agile methods, tools and techniques.</li>
<li>Recognize the difference in mindset and focus for each method and shift the mindset based on the stage of the project.</li>

 <p>As a Project Management Institute (PMI)®Registered Education Provider (R.E.P.), IIL has agreed to abide by PMI®-established quality assurance criteria.</p>
 <p>In today's world of fast paced technology, continually changing requirements and project scope, the need for Agile Project Management has greatly increased. Responding to this demand, the Project Management Institute (PMI®) launched the PMI Agile Certified Practitioner (PMI-ACP)®certification. A result of this certification is the creation of a new space where Project Management and Agile Practices for Software Development meet.</p>
 <p>The foundation of Agile is the Agile Manifesto for Software Development. Agile has been used for software development for a number of years, even prior to the creation of the Agile Manifesto in 2001. The success of Agile for software development projects has piqued interest in successfully employing Agile in many other fields. How can Agile practices be used for projects which are not software or IT in nature?</p>
 <p>This course will provide guidance on how Agile can be used beyond software development projects, including how it differs from traditional project management. The course also will provide an overview of the Agile Scrum framework, which is one of the most popular Agile methodologies used.</p>
 <p>This course provides practical skills, concepts, and principles you can take back to the job and use to implement Agile practices in projects, as applicable. The goal of this course is to acquaint participants with the concepts of agile development methods and the specifics of the Scrum management framework.</p>
 <p>At the end of this course, participants will understand:</p>
 <ul>
 <li>Agile Practices - what makes Agile projects 'agile'</li>
