Bring Agile Planning to the Whole Organization

Video description

Most organizations today say they practice “agile” methods. But probing reveals that agility typically begins and ends with software engineering teams. It is rare for agile methods to be used more broadly in other areas, such as finance or HR. Yet it is in these infrastructure disciplines that agility must take root. Agile processes can be used and have great benefits in far more than just software development, including in how organizations plan, develop their strategies, refine their budgets, and make decisions. Agility provides speed, flexibility, continuous learning, and improvement; it provides resilience in how organizations make decisions. In this interactive Harvard Business Review webinar, lean evangelist Jeff Gothelf describes how agile planning can be applied far beyond software development to all aspects of business operations, particularly the finance function.
