Bridging the Gap with Agile Learn how a large cloud-computing enterprise used Flawless ExecutionSM, a remarkably scalable agile business framework, across diverse business teams including their Marketing Team, Legal Team, C-Suite and even the Sales Group functional teams that are notorious for avoiding agile methodologies. As part of a major merger, the company sought to unite two sales teams that were not strategically aligned and didn't have a customer-focused mindset. Just as agile methodologies help developers keep the customer at the forefront of the conversation, this sales organization used the agile techniques and practices of Flawless ExecutionSM, to align around the customer's needs, scale best practices, and shift the culture to a more customer-centric mindset. Result: after an abysmal first half in 2016, the team rallied together after implementing Flawless Execution as their process of record over the summer and beat their sales forecast by 17% in Q4. This had an impact on morale for the 22,000-person company and even increased the stock price by 10%. This and other IILLearning in Minutes presentations qualify for PDUs.

Measurement and Governance for Agile Leaders - Why it's not Working and What it Does To achieve true business agility. leaders must not only grow and support self-reliant. cross-functional. self-organizing teams; they must also change the way their organizations fund and oversee their agile initiatives. They must believe in feedback and allow that feedback to work. However. old measures like 'on time' and 'within budget' are not useful when markets and customers are constantly changing. potentially resulting in delivering great solutions to problems that no longer exist.
