What you want. To be more dynamic with your project portfolio. Maybe some teams are already working Agile, but the projects are not yet well aligned. In addition, you need a good story about why you do the projects you do together. In that story, you want to be able to link the strategic goals to the project goals. Then you show that you are really working on the most important projects. Agile, in other words. All reasons to do an Agile Portfolio Kickstart with Scrum Academy.
Your current project portfolio is there for a reason. There is a lot of thinking going on, but the focus is lost. In Kickstart, we look at the current situation and bring it back into shape. Think of it as maintaining your garden. It is usually not necessary to build a whole new garden.
When it comes to Agile Project Portfolio, it is important that the organization – and therefore the management team – is on the same page. You use the same principles and understanding of value. There is a clear line between the organization’s strategy, value you want to deliver and solutions that contribute to it.
That’s why we combine explanation with actual practice. That way, you don’t waste time discussing process and you can go full content: a solid vision with a relevant portfolio. The first step towards a value-driven organization has been taken!
You don’t have to wait until the next heath day to make your project portfolio Agile. But if you have a heath day planned, our program is ideally suited. We facilitate the conversation about the future and the past. We focus on concrete outcomes, so that something really changes after the heath day and you don’t go back to business as usual.
A practical Agile Portfolio is value-based. In our approach, we first take you through the good practices for determining value. Consider Value Driven Portfolio Management and Managing for Results. Then we really start doing it. We look at the budgets and talents of the organization, so we don’t count ourselves rich with capacity that is there. Instead, we deploy capacity to maximize added value.
After the kickstart, you have sharpened central vision with associated portfolio and a roadmap for the near future. Most of our clients have also identified improvements in their organization and process. E n the intensive collaboration makes the actions for implementing the improvements are clear.
– At the Ingenieursbureau of the City of Amsterdam, we put a cockpit team firmly in place for keeping the digitization portfolio tight. With a new rhythm, that team aligns projects and accelerates Return on Investment.
– For health insurer ONVZ, we helped implement improved principles that allowed the team of Product Owners to evolve from feature delivery to value delivery.
– We also organized new focus on value at Schiphol. Setting up customer teams and creating a common vision around the customer and a common portfolio for the projects.
– And at PVH – the holding company for Tommy Hilfiger, Calvin Klein, Michael Kors and Karl Lagerfeld – we are working on organizing teams around customer groups and creating customer journeys with associated customer values.
Every organization starts from a different level of Agility and has its own requirements for improving the portfolio. We therefore always adapt the program to the situation. Are you curious what it could look like for you? Feel free to plan an appointment with calendly or call us directly.

De training was ontzettend leuk en leerzaam. Ik heb veel nieuwe inzichten opgedaan. Daarnaast vond ik de praktische casussen goed gekozen en passend geïntegreerd in de training.
Martijn heeft bij ons In Company de training Srcum Master Advanced verzorgd. In 2 dagen heeft hij ons een enorme boost kunnen geven waar we zelf verder mee aan de slag kunnen. De training was lekker interactief en Martijn zorgde ervoor dat onze praktijk situaties goed aan bod kwamen. Deze training is niet alleen geschikt voor Scrum Masters, maar ook voor teamleads. En voor HR, zelf heb ik namelijk ook deelgenomen.
interactieve training zonder beeldscherm. alles wat je leert hangt de trainer aan de muur in aansprekende schema's en tekeningen
Scrum master training gevolgd via de "Scrum Academy". Erg leuke training, interactief en vol met handige praktijkvoorbeelden. Gert Jan maakt de training behapbaar voor iedereen.
Goede en waardevolle Product Owner training en prettige trainer!
Ik heb enorm genoten van de training! Zeer interactief met veel verschillende werkvormen. Gert-Jan was een hele prettige en ervaren docent.
Leuke training, veel afwisseling tussen theorie en toepassen! Erg bruikbaar en fijne trainer.
Een levendige en inspirerende Product Owner training door Gert‑Jan Danenberg (Scrumacademy). Veel inhoud in twee dagen, maar dankzij de sterke methodiek en pakkende oefeningen blijft er verrassend veel hangen. De fijne locatie en de goede verzorging door de gastvrouw maakten het helemaal af.
Gert-Jan is echt een uitstekende trainer, Agile en Scrum is leuke materie, de scrumacademy methode om het aan te leren was leuk, leerzaam en echt de moeite waard. Het aantal cursussen en workshops dat ik heb gedaan tot op heden is onwijs veel hoop (Prince2, Lean, MSP, TOGAF, Lean Six Sigma, etc) . Dit is zeker top 3 van wat ik gevolgd heb, qua aanbieder.
Ik heb een zeer waardevolle ervaring gehad tijdens de product owner training van Scrum Academy. De training was zowel leerzaam en inspirerend als prettig interactief opgezet.
Heel goed, erg vriendelijke en vanuit de praktijk ervaren trainer.
