The rapidly changing and increasingly complex work environment, often referred to as the VUCA world (Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity, Ambiguity), demands organizations to be agile in managing and executing projects. Traditional project management approaches struggle to keep pace with these dynamics, especially in international cooperation where cultural sensitivities and unique challenges are prevalent. The goal was to equip participants with agile methodologies to handle these complexities effectively.

Conducted over three consecutive days, the course was highly interactive, utilizing tools like MS Teams and Miro for collaborative learning. Participants engaged in experiential learning through case studies, practical exercises, and reflective sessions.

By adopting these agile methodologies, participants are now better equipped to navigate the complexities of their work environments, leading to more effective and efficient project management in international cooperation contexts.
