Why doesn’t my horse listen by tatheer fatima
Listening is a key component of effective communication. It helps build relationships both personally and professionally. There are barriers to listening such as not paying attention, having preconceived notions, and selective listening that can come from both the sender and receiver. Different communication situations require different techniques, including communicating with understanding versus to manipulate. Assertive communication where both parties matter is most effective, while aggressive focuses only on the self and passive only on others. Following tips like maintaining eye contact, asking clarifying questions, and taking notes can improve listening skills.

Is Agile dead? It depends on what you mean by 'Agile'. If you mean that the organizations are not getting the promised benefits because they were focusing too much on the team-level agile "ways of working" instead of systemic global improvements -- then we are in agreement. It is a misunderstanding of Agility that led us down a dead-end. At Org Topologies, we see bright sparks -- the signs of the 'second wave of Agile' as we call it. The emphasis is shifting towards both in-team and inter-team collaboration. Away from false dichotomies. Both: team autonomy and shared broad product ownership are required to sustain true result-oriented organizational agility. Org Topologies is a package offering a visual language plus thinking tools required to communicate org development direction and can be used to help design and then sustain org change aiming at higher organizational archetypes.
