Description

The traditional business—one made up of departments, steered by management, and operated based on a fixed playbook—is based on concepts that are more than a hundred years old. As a result, most companies are built to meet the needs of the industrial age, not our current age of uncertainty.

But it doesn’t have to be this way. Organizing Toward Agility offers a new path forward: a team-centric, iterative approach to delivering value using customer feedback and continuous experimentation. 

In this talk, Jeff Anderson will go over key concepts covered in his latest book; practices and principles that will help you set up and operate new organizing structures, whether you want to make a larger organizational change or move your business forward incrementally.

Jeff will introduce a suite of practical tools showcased through real-world examples, helping you shift how your organization works so you can design, grow, and operate an organization that can thrive in today’s complex world.
