Overview
For agility to improve business results, leaders must embrace and support real transformation throughout the organization and within themselves. Leadership needs to adopt a new mindset toward greater business agility—a new business operating system to sense and respond to change in high-uncertainty environments; to accelerate learning that increases economic outcomes; and to motivate and align a collaborative workforce focused on value delivery.
Agile for Executives: Agile Leadershipis designed to help you respond to market and internal changes quickly and confidently by accelerating innovation and eliminating the cost of business delay through a powerful workshop.
