How to make Agile go beyond IT? Start by setting the right objectives!
Strategic planning is a key factor for business Agility. Different players within the same organisation put emphasis on different business needs often defining conflicting goals that frequently generate unnecessary friction and lead to waste of energy and resources.
In the Agile community we developed and shared advanced strategies to set objectives, but the question we need to answer now is "which goals to set at the enterprise level and how to do that at the highest level of complexity?”. An integral understanding of the organisation and a new strategic planning system is needed to get ready for this constantly changing business environment. Agile now means that all departments and final customers should feel the benefits of this new approach while preserving the strengths acquired in the past. Integral Objectives means nurturing organizations that excel in quality, efficiency, agility and resilience.
Now that we are re-framing Agility, new questions arise: how does business Agility look like? what are the real benefits to the business? why should you care? how to make it happen? can you measure Business Agility? What’s the impact of Agile on Strategic planning? and even more, what's next?.
I'll give my answer to all this questions from an integral perspective in the service of a pragmatic approach to business agility. The word integral comes from Integral Theory, a contemporary leading edge approach from the field of consciousness studies, psychology, research supported spirituality, and social sciences. As a prime understanding framework for human behaviour, integral theory is also applied to organizations, leadership, business, ecology, and other areas of life.
This highly interactive workshop will help the audience to explore Agile beyond the “Dogma” and to understand how to drive a systemic evolution to take businesses to their next stage. Furthermore they will learn a simple and structured strategy to establish aligned organisational Objectives and rise organisational consciousness to take the the whole system to the next stage.
