Understanding and Implementing FAST Agile

This two-day, in-person, instructor-led, activity-based class is geared to deeply understanding Fluid Scaling Technology (FAST). It will cover FAST’s what, why, and how, including how to start and common pitfalls to avoid.

The style of this class will follow a plan but not in a highly controlled or structured way. Instead, we will allow for the group’s interests and needs to determine the content and pace - and allow for emergence.
