Starting Point

TAYLOR-MADE

Agility does not thrive on following a method correctly. The key is to focus on what makes the difference in your own business. Because this is easier said than done, we have developed BUILD: a system that enables everyone to identify the business levers and agile solutions that really matter for their function or role in simple steps. And use these solutions in such a way that they lead to measurable success.

THE FULL SPECTRUM

Agile methods and toolkits like Scrum, XP or DevOps are great starting points. No less, but also no more. If you want to exploit the full potential of agile working, you need access to the full spectrum of agile solutions. With BUILD, we make exactly that possible: in addition to the classics from Scrum & Co., we give everyone the tools that are crucial for the next level. Including our own developments from over 10 years of agile transformation practice.

LEARNING X.0

Our training model is as individual as the requirements for agile teams and roles. The learning takes place in your company. This automatically brings the question of what is important for impact in your own business to the center. In addition, we initiate exactly the peer-to-peer exchange that is necessary for lasting further development. Because we make all content available as supplementary self-learning modules, the result is deep, lasting and scalable learning.

Lasersharp Focus



In agile, it’s all about the individual. That he or she makes the contribution that is critical to success. And thus fulfills his or her role.

That’s why our trainings consistently focus on agile roles. We systematically show how to contribute to performance at a new level. And specifically in your own business and company.

The diverse tasks of product owners are essential for the business impact of agile working. That is why product owner training is one of the most important fundamentals. Our trainings provide even experienced Product Owners with new perspectives and solutions focused on one question: how to succeed in helping to measurably improve the results, quality, traction and productivity of agile teams.

Agile Coach / Master

The role of the coach or master is critical to success because it starts at the point where agile teams work together. That is, where it is decided whether and to what extent agile working leads to more productivity, effectiveness, traction and systematic improvement. How to move from facilitator to supporter on the way to more business impact as a Scrum Master or agile coach is the focus of our trainings for Agile Coaches, Process Keepers and Scrum Masters.

Agile Team / Developer

At the heart of agile working is the team, which develops solutions in a self-organized manner. It is therefore astonishing how few training and further education offers there are for agile team members. We close this gap. In our trainings, members of agile teams learn what their contribution to the performance boost of agile working is – beyond their content-related task. And which tools make it easy for them to make this contribution in practice.

Agile Leadership

Precisely because the role of leadership in agile methods such as Scrum is only marginally addressed, it is elementary for the business success of agile teams and companies to systematically train the other leadership. Our trainings open up a new perspective for leaders because they are developed from the agile team workflow and formats. And they focus on the question of how agile leadership can become the driver of real performance leaps.

The Feedbacks



Our trainings are different. And better! It goes without saying that we say that. That’s why we let our customers speak for us here.

A few examples »

Working with the b4b team is practical, inspiring and, above all, value-adding.

In the Build Agility Training, we learned important tools for our everyday life and, above all, how to apply them – experiencing the transformation successes in practice is motivating and, above all, fun. We were allowed to experience this in presence and digitally – the results were always very good.

Annika Berchtold. Head of Transformation. HDI GroupAnnika Berchtold. Head of Transformation. HDI Group

When we started b4b, we all had already been trained as Scrum Masters and also had practical experience. The BUILD trainings were an eye-opener and turning point for us: away from pure methodology and towards a focus on business!

Jumana Klotsch. Head of Cultural Transformation. EOS

With the help of the b4b trainings, we have found an immediate access to how we can further develop the work in our company in such a way that teams achieve more together, take responsibility for the implementation of our company goals and enthusiastically want to move our business forward – and that from the very first moment. The trainings bundle the comprehensive experience of b4b in an equally well-founded and flexible approach to accompany transformation processes, which combines the systematic use of everyday experiences, the implementation of new methods and the questioning and further development of one’s own mindset in a very unique way. For all accompanied teams, […] the trainings have created a completely new view and access to tackle challenges directly and solve them sustainably […].

Dr. Daniel Putz. Manager HR Talent and Development, beeline Group.

With b4b’s build approach, we succeeded in finding our own way into agility. We would not have succeeded without the intensive collaboration with b4b’s team: they inspired us conceptually again and again and had a solution in every situation that helped us move forward.
