Ability to improve operations and processes • Staff who are accountable • Clear goals and objectives • Ability to quickly reallocate resources from one portfolio to another • Requires talent and managerial attention • Ability to see strategically game changing opportunities • Look forward, plan ahead and be ready to act Agility – operational, portfolio, strategic

  5. Push boundaries and challenge old ways of doing things • Encourage risk • mistakes are okay as long as we learn from them • Not interested in playing it safe • Want to know what they can do – not what they can’t do Agile Leaders

  6. Workforce has the attitude that work is something you do – not a place to go • Flexible on work rules and where work is done • Shift from time and attendance to specific targets and goals • Balanced score card approach – what gets measured gets done • Variable job assignments • Skill set is transferable from one project to another Agile Workforces

  7. Organizational charts are flat • Employees need to be connected to information and knowledge • Employees need to have access to the decision makers • Titles are not as important as the ability to respond to customer needs and have impact on the outcomes of the business Agile – Organizational Structure
