Implementing Agile that Works for Your Organization

Transform the way your organization thinks, works, and collaborates to ensure customer satisfaction consistently through white-glove Agile Consulting, focused Leadership Boot Camps, and Role-specific Career Intensives

It’s true: your company has a great client roster, innovative ideas, and smart and dedicated humans who want to do their best

Agile can be win-win for you: Great in theory, even better in practice

Boost Efficiency

Coach your leaders to strategize, improve their processes continuously and anticipate and mitigate roadblocks so that their people can focus on daily tasks without distraction.

Empower Your Teams

Create a high-trust environment where everyone has clarity and prioritizes excellence to create a product with a competitive advantage. 

Streamline Collaboration

Reduce communication gaps between teams and departments through tools that empower them to share progress and ask for feedback efficiently. 

Reduce Risks

Design visibility and feedback loops that promote iterative, risk-free progress without micromanagement and allow you to design and deliver customer-focused solutions in less time.

Increase ROI

When Agile is implemented with a “leader in each chair” approach, your people stay motivated, proactive, and open to game-changing ideas. This ensures your organization gets more from each resource – without having to pay the expensive costs of burnout and attrition.

A roadmap to sustain the change and customized training materials is an integral part of our handover process and ensures you can onboard new employees without calling on external consultants.

Implement with empathy, efficiency, and excellence

      A note from our Founder & Chief Consultant

      Bee Agile can bridge the gap between reality and possibility

      Hi, I’m Aina Alive, and we care about getting the right results for you. That’s why our approach is diagnostic and integration-focused.

      Before creating your framework, we consider how Agile will fit into your company’s culture, industry regulations and standards, and your vision and high-level goals. 

      We know you’re not just about following trends, and we equip you to create Agile transformations that are lasting and scalable. 

      Frequently asked questions

      What others have been asking

      1. What are your travel conditions for on-site Agile transformations?

      My team and I are open to traveling so we can personally assist your organization in the diagnostic and framework creation phases. The latter part of the process is hybrid: part on-site (needs-based) and part virtual. 

      2. How soon can our organization become Agile?

      Implementing Agile isn’t simply about teaching your leaders and teams a few tools. At Bee Agile, we start with a culture and mindset shift and ease everyone into the process, gathering feedback at every phase. This makes the transformation more sustainable and usually takes six months to a year, depending on your readiness indicators and individual pace of adoption. 

      3. How are the boot camps delivered?

      The boot camps can be delivered virtually or onsite, depending on your needs.

      4. What’s the difference between an Agile consultant and a Scrum Master?

      A Scrum Master is dedicated to 1-2 teams and plays a servant leadership role in monitoring the pulse of the team.

      As Agile consultants, we see the organization as a whole – not just on a team level. We can zoom in and out as required, formulate strategy, coach on mindset, and guide organizations on choosing Agile frameworks that work for them. 

       

      Make Agile count for your organization

      Being customer-focused, profit-focused, and employee-focused don’t have to be at odds with each other.
