New course: Building Agile Teams

The new Building Agile Teams course is now live, designed to help you lead and collaborate across product, design, and development in fast-moving, real-world environments. You’ll learn what actually makes agile teams effective, not just through ceremonies and standups, but through mindset, collaboration, and adaptability.

The course explores how to overcome hand-off silos, balance creative and technical roles, and deliver customer value through iterative work. You’ll uncover why the “waterfall” model failed, how UX and PM can share ownership without sacrificing their strengths, and how to find the right level of fidelity at every stage of development.

Created by Josh Smith, an experienced strategist and agile leader with 25+ years in B2B product development, this course brings insights from leading teams of 30 to 400 across integrated design and product practices. If you’re ready to build high-performing, cross-functional teams, this course is for you.
