People not technology mindsets not toolsets and value not productivity
Business Agility is about people not technology, mindsets not toolsets and value not productivity
As mindless as many organisations think their workers, they are not in the slightest led by others. They in fact appropriate information through their own lenses, against their own rational, values, cultures and experience to date. With this much translation its not a surprise there is such a huge loss in critical path focus and interaction.
Agile
For many Agile is a thing that happens to Software and Technology people and nothing to do with Executive Management, Business Strategy or the Business in general. However there have been notable advances in how the concepts of Agile DevOps are brought into business enablement since 2016. The evolution includes Enterprise Agility and Business Agility, Agile being location agnostic can be applied anywhere.
People not Technology
It’s easy to focus on Technology as a solution to problems, but it cannot solve poor processes (or business models) and human engagement (or non engagement). The Agile DevOps focus is therefore people, being the high value resources for complex solutions and the low value for repetitive activities that could be and should be templated or automated.
Mindsets not Toolsets
What organisations need is behavioural change, digging people out of entrenched mindsets that are localised around their skillsets and work and think in ecosystems around the whole lifecycle of work that adds value to the organisation and its customers.
Value not Productivity
Not all work is valuable, in fact producers (those who do the work that bring in value) in most organisations ratio is dropping compared to non producers (managers, support functions). In some organisations for every three people who produce value there are seven non producers, all are productive but the three producers are funding the non producers.
