The Agile Manifesto was originally written to help software developers satisfy and surprise their customers by anticipating and responding to their needs. Over the past 25 to 30 years, the success rate of software development has increased considerably, quality and speed to market have improved, and the motivation and productivity of IT teams have increased. This unquestionable success is now attainable by companies in various fields and industries, particularly in Tourism and Hospitality (T&H).
Several companies in the industry like Booking.com, IHG Hotels & Resorts, or even Ryanair are adopting Agile principles in the search for fast and effective responses to market changes and uncertainties, embracing one of its most important principles – emphasis on people rather than process.
The Postgraduate in Agile Transformation in Tourism & Hospitality aims to share knowledge of the various frameworks, practices and tools of Agile, designed to understand the priorities of companies and develop projects that require speed and flexibility, allowing its participants to acquire skills, mindsets and behaviors appropriate to achieving great results and optimizing resources.
At the end of the Postgraduate, participants will have acquired the necessary and fundamental knowledge to apply the Agile approach in their teams and organizations, paving the way for results with better quality and less risk than following traditional approaches. When implemented correctly, these methodologies result in increased productivity, more diverse and dynamic teamwork, and faster time to market for new products or services.
The variable people in the T&H sector is becoming more and more relevant and differentiating, so that an adequate training of these people is a strategic issue in the sector. It is the employees who, by combining the theoretical and the practical, make the results of any positive action visible. The T&H professional, besides being an important part of the service, is the one who acts in order to make the tourist/customer experience a unique and memorable moment.
This ambitious program to empower the industry with Agile and transformative skills is aimed at:
