Tu organización se comporta como la red de metro de una gran ciudad: equipos interconectados entre ellos que se intercambian trabajo, con el fin de prestar servicios o desarrollar productos.
En la mayoría de empresas, el flujo del trabajo a través de esta red está lejos de ser el óptimo. Muchos atascos y bloqueos, problemas con la calidad, falta de sincronización entre equipos, procesos complejos y burocráticos, enorme distancia entre la estrategia y los equipos …
Hemos diseñado un modelo que te permitirá alcanzar la agilidad en toda la organización de forma eficaz y sostenida, minimizando las resistencias y simplificando los procesos:
- 10 clases de 3h online en directo
- Casos prácticos reales de diseño organizacional
- Entrevistas a expertos
- Certificado oficial de la Kanban University
- Club privado con eventos, webinars, soporte, etc
El curso será impartido por Pablo Domingo y Josep Riudavets, consultores y formadores que han vivido ya muchas situaciones de transformación ágil y conocen en detalle las situaciones que pueden frenar o acelerar la agilidad en tu empresa.

Mallorca Tech Stories
This time we chatted with Germán Vidal who, together with Jordi Ber, has launched Apprentium, an online school for the construction sector. Despite having been running for only a few months, they already have 9 courses produced, 25 more in the pipeline and they have more than 1,000 users registered on their platform.
In addition, it shares in a fairly detailed way how they have launched the business following the Lean Startup methodology. Spending few resources, validating hypotheses and betting on what works. A super inspirational testimonial for anyone launching a business, thinking of doing it, or just interested in the topic.
