Start-ups are upsetting the proverbial apple cart and upstaging old-timer organizations by being able to respond more quickly to market trends. What do you do?
This month’s PM Network has some ideas. Many organizations are implementing agile approaches. A survey shows that a top benefit of adopting agile is an increased ability to manage changing priorities. Increased project delivery speed is another advantage of going the agile way.
The article “Built for Speed” follows Australian telecommunications company Telstra as its IT and digital solutions team rolls out frequent releases for its products and supporting software. Another example shown in the article is the data engine Zoomdata, which sped up its product deliveries by transitioning to agile and giving ownership to its product teams.
Agile approaches can be used outside of IT as well. The article offers a five-step process of introducing agile. The results can be transformative for customers interacting with your organization.

Looking forward to my hard copy! (I know, I know... certain things are still easier to read on paper.)

Competition is always something to stay ahead of and how personnel can help with this something I think more companies should look at.
