As a Tight Loose Tight Practitioner, you will be able to work as a leader in an agile organization, and you will be able to support other leaders in your organization to adopt an agile practice. We believe that after completing the course you will have learned a new mindset, and that you will see and feel clear results both through more satisfied employees and through strengthened results for your team. You will also be able to put agile management in context with other management styles, and know when you should use the various management tools.
Tight Loose Tight is a Norwegian-developed management model for trust-based management, and has been adopted in both public and private enterprises such as NAV, Telenor, the National Archives and DNV. Our ambition is therefore that our students will be able to make a stronger position on the job market after completing the approved education.
To ensure quality, which we believe is a prerequisite for the education to be attractive in business, you will end the course with an exam. Those who pass the exam and who have participated in at least 70% of the course will be able to receive a diploma as an approved Tight Loose Tight Practitioner, and will subsequently be part of a growing community of leaders who are trying to do the same as you. After a year's practice, you will also be able to apply for the education as a Tight Loose Tight Trainer, which gives you training right to train Tight Loose Tight Practitioners yourself.
The course is a mix between theory and practice. In steps, you will learn everything you need to successfully use and implement Tight Loose Tight. You will also use Tight Loose Tight to create your own learning journey.
Every second module is a "bring your case" module. By analysing concrete cases, you will understand the concept even better - there is enough space for all your questions that come up in daily life.
