We hear the words Business Agility a lot now - to agilists it probably makes perfect sense but there seems to be a need for better understanding and education. I want to give you some information you can share with your teams and decision makers, and some real-world examples of how and when to apply Agile to Business.
- Remember that the Principles of Agility Apply equally to non-technical environments
- Almost any business domain - finance, legal, people, marketing, strategy, support/service - will be able to benefit from focused work, inspecting and adapting, delivering early and often and face-to-face communications.
- Increasingly, businesses are adapting Agile thinking and practice to non-software, non-technical problems, so avoiding the issue won’t be an option if you want to stay competitive.
- An Agile leader needs to know how to explain and adapt these principles to traditional business areas.
