The Agile Model®
Agility Consulting has identified five characteristics needed for organizations to be capable of anticipating and responding to changing demands and adapting to new requirements . . . in real time.
The Agile Model® provides a roadmap to help organizations and leaders navigate through the turbulent waters of today's business environment. The Agile Model® is built from best practices in organizational performance and is endorsed by the American Management Association (AMA) as well as recognized as the "best leadership model for our changing world" in the 2008 book Human Resource Transformation. The five drivers of an adaptive, agile individual, team or organization, embodied in the model, include the ability and processes to anticipate change, generate confidence, initiate action, liberate thinking and evaluate results. Each of these drivers must exist within all three enterprise domains, i.e. people, processes and technology, in order to create and sustain an agile enterprise.
