Course description
Creating an Agile Organization
In today’s complex and changing business environment, the ability of an organisation to rapidly adapt to variables, opportunities and threats, when it needs to do so, in an effective and efficient way becomes imperative, in order to meet its objectives.
Therefore, Agility increasingly constitutes not only a way for organisations to continuously evolve, but a precondition to survive. However, organisations frequently focus their efforts to be more Agile mainly within the sphere of philosophical discussions and verbal intentions, do not handle misalignments between identified threats and opportunities, systemic structures, organisational culture and employees’ workplace, and do not manage required change to transform identified needs into practices in an effective way.
Through this highly interactive practical course you will not only understand what Agility is, but more importantly how you can improve the ability of your organisation to rapidly adapt in 6 carefully selected Areas, 18 sub-Areas and over 60 Topics, as well as how you can effectively manage the change required to transform identified threats, opportunities and trends into value adding actions in a systematic way.
