Agility is more than just being flexible. Flexibility means being able to react quickly to unexpected tasks, for this purpose it usually requires a central control. An agile organization on the other hand can manage without central control.
Features of agile organizations
1. thinking in alternative and well thought-out future plans
In agile companies there is a culture of permissiveness and lateral thinking. The strategy is constantly compared with the visions of the future, and together with experience this results in the strategic path.
2. agile management understanding and lean structure and process organisation
To be able to react quickly to changes, there are short decision paths and a different management understanding in contrast to the classic ones.
3. customers are defined as partners
In agile organizations, customers are part of the value creation process and are not at the end of the chain. It is thought out starting from the customer with a view to his customer journey. In this way, the customer is actively involved in the development of services and products. This allows the customer to provide feedback and express further wishes at an early stage of development.
4. culture and mindset
Working in agile companies is characterized by the fact that everyone assumes that employees always act with the best intentions and give their best. The roles are clearly assigned and everyone makes their own contribution to achieving the goals. Mistakes are a learning process and there is a respectful and transparent interaction with each other.
