Why Agility?
We exist in a world characterised by ever-increasing Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity and Ambiguity. Ways of working shaped by the Industrial Revolution, and still dominant today in most organisations, no longer allow us to respond quickly enough to the demands of our increasingly VUCA world. More and more organisations are struggling to survive, let alone thrive in such challenging times.
Businesses that embrace agility, harness the innovative, collaborative power of their people to meet the challenges of the modern world. They respond dynamically to those challenges continually experimenting, learning and adapting how they work and what they do while delivering customer value regularly and consistently.
What is an Agile Organisation?
An agile business is focused, fast, flexible, energised, efficient and effective are just some of the words associated with the idea of Agility.
It harnesses the power of its people to:
- Take advantage of the new opportunities at speed
- Adapt quickly to market changes and challenges
- Innovate constantly to deliver better outcomes
- Lead with purpose and positive intent
