UNLOCKING AGILITY

The clock speed of business is accelerating - and enterprises recognize that
embracing a more agile way of operating is not only desirable; it's critical to
remain in business. Unlocking Agility gives change leaders the right amount of
theoretical foundation and practical guidance necessary to embrace change and
execute with purpose.

Packed with practical advice, extensive resources, end-to-end guidance and
real-life examples of successes and failures from companies such as Amazon,
Intel, Google, Spotify, ING and many more - Unlocking Agility provides
indispensable practical insights for everyone seeking to build a truly agile
enterprise.






INSTANTLY PRACTICAL AND ACTIONABLE

Over the past decade, Jorgen Hesselberg has led numerous noteworthy agile
transformations of some of the world’s most respected organizations. In this
comprehensive guide to unlocking agility at the enterprise level, he looks at
the history, philosophy, and practice of business agility.

Readers will learn the methods to begin an effective change effort, and the
pitfalls to avoid through the journey. The book culminates with a strategic
roadmap: how to create meaningful change and support it over the long term.

HOW THE BOOK IS ORGANIZED

Why is business agility more important today than ever? Where does agile come
from and is it purely a software thing?


THE CASE FOR AGILE
– THE "WHY"

What are the environments where agile ways of working thrive - and what are the
contexts where plan-driven approaches are more appropriate? What does it mean to
optimize for flow and what are the implications from an organizational
perspective? Why is business agility more important today than ever? Where does
agile come from and is it purely a software thing?


ORGANIZATIONAL IMPLICATIONS
– THE "WHAT"

What are the dimensions we need to think about in terms of changing our
organization? What are the changes we need to make regarding Technology,
Organizational Design, People, Leadership and Culture? How can we ensure we
align our operational strategy with our business strategy – and not the other
way around?


EMBRACE CHANGE, EXECUTE WITH PURPOSE
– THE "HOW"

How can an organization change in a sustainable manner to a more agile way of
working? How can we implement a "engine of change" to help sustain momentum
beyond the honeymoon period and truly change an enterprise? What does a
high-level strategic roadmap look like – and what are the very real pitfalls to
avoid on the journey?


RESOURCES, DOWNLOADS AND CHAPTER-SPECIFIC CONTENT

Unlocking Agility is packed with lots of resources to ensure you can immediately
apply the concepts in the book and start embracing agility in your organization.
There were many resources that did not make it in the book, however, due to
formatting issues, size constraints and the like. For these, I created a Medium
page that I plan to update continuously so that you’ll always have access to the
latest resources related to the book.

My hope is that these resources will serve as an effective companion to the book
and make your experience as a reader more complete.

So much Agile goodness jam-packed into one book! Starting with the origins of
modern management, and ending with a vision for organizations of the future,
Jorgen has pulled together every conceivable pattern, framework, and model,
while also incorporating important topics like age, gender, & diversity.

Jason Kline
Agile Practice Leader, Accenture"


Jorgen has written a gem of a book - in his conversational, easy-to-read style,
he tackles complex subjects from agile organization design, to agile teams, to
agile workspaces. If you are looking for a thoughtful discussion on what it
takes to transform your organization into an agile one, this book should be
required reading.

Noopur Davis
SVP, Chief Product and Information Security Officer, Comcast






What a joy to read this book! From lean experimentation to agile collaboration,
from business modeling to organization design, from anecdotes and stories to
scaling models and transformational roadmaps, Jorgen craftily weaves it all
together in this compelling book. If you were wondering where to start your
agile transformation, you can start right here.

Jurgen Appelo
author of Management 3.0 and Managing for Happiness





When recommending books on agile, I have a tough time suggesting the same book
for agile nerds AND the interested-but-not-immersed. Unlocking Agility fits the
bill, however. The book is pragmatic and accessible, while encouraging an agile
approach to enterprise agility itself. I found the closing chapters on Agile
Working Groups, change strategy/roadmaps, and organizational improvement
backlogs to be particularly valuable. I no doubt will be referring to them
frequently.

Product Development Coach, Writer
