Summary

Introduction

The fast-paced world needs a new kind of leader and leadership. This thesis emphasizes the dynamism and innovative orientation of projects and programs for the development of organizations based on the introduction of information and communication technologies. That is individuals who are able to respond quickly to technological innovation, changing social relationships and creating new businesses and technologies for project implementation in Agile transformation of Education Establishment. Decision-makers are increasingly being held accountable to experts, and leadership is being replaced by leadership at all levels of the organization This means that more and more project teams are choosing a holocratic, one-tier structure and principles of activity [14]. There are practically no organizations that do not apply (at least at an intuitive level) Agile project and program management methodologies. Education Establishment already have experience with agile methodologies know that more than just sending people to training is needed. They understand that agile methodologies are easy to learn but difficult to put into practice. Even plan-oriented projects can benefit from flexibility [6]
