“Agile coaches guide individuals and teams to get clear about the change they desire, identify places where current reality does not match desired reality and then take action to close the gap… Agile coaches support, guide, coach, teach, mentor and facilitate change without colluding with the current reality.” ICAgile 

Kintsugi Training Institute is a truly unique organization, founded on the principles and values of Agile methodologies. At the core of our mission is the belief that Agile is not just a process or a methodology, but rather a mindset that can be applied to any workspace or situation.

Whether it is through our online courses or our in-person training sessions, our goal is to provide a seamless experience that enables our participants to fully embrace the Agile mindset.

One of the key tenets of Agile is the ability to be flexible and adaptable, and we take this to heart in all aspects of our organization. We recognize that our clients come from diverse backgrounds and have different schedules and time zones, and we strive to accommodate these needs in our offerings. Whether it is through live online sessions, pre-recorded content, or personalized coaching, we are committed to providing a range of options that meet the needs of our clients.
