Leaders' Library

Every week, we share an interesting long-form piece of content to contemplate.

Today, we’re reading the book Agility.X: How Organizations Thrive in Unpredictable Times by Christiane Prange and Loizos Heracleous.

There are helpful examples of companies that have implemented successful agility programs (e.g., NASA, Ford Motor Company, Siemens, Daimler, and J.W. Thompson), which will evoke ideas for your own company. 

The top takeaway, though, was what lies behind the strategies. The authors lead readers through a sort of sociological history of agile thinking in business, allowing for great reflection on how this type of thinking could be relevant to you. 

Learning how to incorporate agile thinking for both yourself and in the way you lead your company can be a transformative journey.
