Modalidades organizacionales ágiles en base a la Metodología Scrum
En un mundo de fuerte competitividad global, como el que atravesamos hoy en día, con entornos tan complejos y cambiantes, de alta incertidumbre y volatilidad, con fuertes exigencias en adaptabilidad de sectores y mercados; los modelos de negocios predictivos tradicionalmente aplicados en el mundo empresarial con foco de expertise en el negocio, empiezan a ser estrategias poco efectivas y flexibles para la obtención de una competitividad sustentable. En este contexto, es que en el mundo empresarial, se produjo una fuerte orientación a buscar capacidades organizacionales ágiles y adaptativas que mejor se adecuaran a los entornos y mercados inciertos, que tuvo su origen en el desarrollo de proyectos complejos, con estructuras más planas, informales y autónomas; permitiendo un mejor equilibrio entre las capacidades de innovación y las de explotación. Durante el curso realizaremos una introducción de la filosofía ágil y de la dinámica SCRUM como base de marco conceptual, conoceremos sus usos y alcances más frecuentes, vivenciaremos la aplicación de los modelos de mejores prácticas organizacionales, y desarrollaremos las oportunidades competitivas diferenciales, así como los desafíos más importantes a la hora de su implementación en la organización.
