Agility requires cultural change

Article published in German magazine it-daily.net

Fast-moving markets, economic uncertainties, and progressive digitization pose major challenges for companies. Instead of responding quickly, many companies are stuck in traditional structures. However, economic survival requires a high degree of adaptability. Businesses, therefore, have to become more agile.

This is the starting point of a discussion on cultural change as a prerequisite to Agile transformations that we recently published in German online magazine it-daily.net. We argue that every company has to find its own agile way. That may seem like a tedious task, but it's always worth it when it comes to making a company fit for all future challenges.
