Description
Organizational success is not based on excellent business strategy and operational planning alone. Adept execution is required. Yet, organizations continue to struggle with shortfalls in implementation of their operational plans. In this book, the authors reveal a proven value-chain based methodology for effectively guiding an organization to higher achievement of objectives and improved cash flow. In Managing by Agility, readers discover how to powerfully connect organizational missions to day-to-day activities. Value chain mapping and indexing, and disconnect analysis provide the questions that get to the crucial answers about priorities. The authors’ unique agility approach offers critical guidance about how to extract financial drivers of critical business processes, which lead to selection of the most useful KLI (Key Leading Indicator). They demonstrate the importance of developing high levels of employee engagement to build and sustain organizational agility through the new non-directive leadership skills learned by senior leaders as they discover how to upgrade their business’ operating system.
