DevOps Leader

The DevOps Leader course is a unique and practical experience for participants who want to take a transformational leadership approach and make an impact within their organization by implementing DevOps. Leading people through a DevOps evolution requires new skills, tools, innovative thinking, and transformational leadership. Leaders up, down and across an organization must align and collaborate to break down silos and evolve the organization.

«Hele kurset var masse læring fra første sekund. Måten Sigma underviser og veileder på er inspirerende, og jeg opplevede meg selv som en bedre møteleder og veileder første dag på jobb etter å ha lært fagstoff og erfare Sigma som instruktør. Supert at kurset var over 3 dager, så vi fikk tid til diskusjoner og sette fagstoffet i en sammenheng som man kan relatere seg til. Da sitter det mye bedre, framfor at det bare blir 'oppramsing av pensum'. Sigma gjør fagstoffet levende og konkretiserer det på en måte som hjelper meg til å raskere og enklere ta det i bruk i min arbeidshverdag. » Kathrine Raaen, Coop Norge
