Agility: the ability to change direction quickly and efficiently.

Further – a purpose of movement, gracefully executed with economy of effort.

It’s unlikely any business would argue against wanting more of that.

Yet this agility is not always easily come by. Where to start, when it might feel like lots of areas need atttention ?

The Business Agility Institute identifies a range of capabilities and behaviours which can be used to help an organisation understand its current state and build inititiatives for improving agility where needed.

For example one of the 5 domain areas is called ‘Value Based Delivery’

Within that, one of the 4 capabilities looks at the workflow system.

And within that ‘Effective Workflow’ capability, behaviours for enhancing it include:

– how well impediments are removed (removed not worked around),
– learning how to safely limit the amount of work in progress to make everything flow faster

 

In this way, the aspiration of ‘Business Agility’ can be broken down into numerous practical small changes which can be run as experiments, observed and measured for their impact and effectiveness.
