This workshop will address how an entire organization can be run in an agile way, where people and interactions are more valued than processes and tools, and where responding to change is more important than following a plan. You will get unique insights into Business Agility in practice, both from a managerial, financial and human perspective.
Topics during the workshop
Learn how to trust and empower without losing control, and how to redefine performance – with dynamic and relative targets (or no targets at all) and a holistic performance evaluation. Understand how dynamic forecasting and resource allocation works, and also other examples of self-regulating management mechanisms, including transparency. Bjarte will also share insights into KPI and OKR pitfalls, and bonus problems. And last but not least, understand why there can be no true agile transformation without Beyond Budgeting. This includes:
- The problems with traditional management, including budgeting
- Beyond Budgeting – the adaptive management model
- Companies on the journey around the world; examples of how they operate
