Why Government Leaders Must Embrace Agile Agile is a pathway to innovation in many Government agencies. It is a response to challenges in Information Technology where traditional software development processes often did not yield expected results. This resulted in many projects exceeding budgets and timelines, and ignoring needed requirement changes. At its core, Agile is about priorities, placing individuals and interactions above processes and tools; working products above comprehensive documentation; customer collaboration above contract negotiation; and responding to change above following a plan. Leaders can embrace this approach to improve processing times, and coordination among development teams and users. This presentation provides practical steps on how leaders can better understand and support the innovation practices introduced by Agile.

Every Saturday at 9:10 – 9:55 As our students gracefully progress through their ballet journey at M & L School of Performing Arts, a new horizon unfolds with the option to embark on their very first ballet examination. This milestone is a testament to their dedication, yet we hold the philosophy that the path of ballet is as unique as each dancer; thus, participation in exams is entirely voluntary. For those who feel the call to delve deeper, pursuing an exam offers a structured opportunity to refine their technique and immerse themselves in the discipline of ballet. The choice to undertake an exam goes beyond the dance studio; it’s a lesson in self-discipline, a challenge that beckons our young dancers to dedicate themselves to practice and perfection. It’s about setting a goal that’s not just about leaps and turns but about growth and self-discovery. Our curriculum is designed not only to prepare students for these exams but to instill a sense of accomplishment and motivation, driving them to reach new heights. Ballet, at its core, is an expression of the soul. It’s about listening not just to the music but to the silent cues of movement and harmony. It teaches our dancers the value of precise instruction, the beauty of individuality, and the strength found in unity. Through ballet, our students develop not just in technique but in life skills: coordination, posture, strength, and flexibility are nurtured alongside artistry and a love for music. At this pivotal stage, our focus intensifies on Classical Ballet technique, laying a solid foundation for both the art and the artist. As physical prowess and confidence flourish, our dancers are encouraged to express their creativity and emotions through their movements, further deepening their connection to the art form. The M & L School of Performing Arts is not just about ballet; it’s a sanctuary where young artists grow, inspired by the discipline, beauty, and expressive power of dance.
