Business Agility in 21 Minutes

Join us for a fast-paced tour of the "who, what, and why" of business agility. In this complimentary session - we'll share a concise, framework-agnostic way to explain business agility to your peers, executives, partners, and customers. And maybe even your cat.

No Jargon. All Business.

This Session is for You if You Are

• Someone who's curious about this thing called " business agility" and would like an explanation that doesn't come with a lifetime supply of jargon
• An Agile professional who's looking to "go beyond" Agile in IT/technology & needs to be able to communicate with other functions, as well as the "big boss"
• A People Ops/HR professional who's looking to "connect the dots" of all the transformation activities in the organization

Why 21 Minutes?

"I would have written a shorter letter, but didn't have the time.*"
~ Blaise Pascal (French Mathematician & Philosopher)

We KNOW we can explain business agility in a longer conference presentation, a thick book, or a 2-hour workshop. The real test is this — can we distill the explanation down to a series of elevator pitches that fit into a 21-minute session?

Notes...

*The American writer Mark Twain is often credited with this quote. But our friend Pascal beat him to the punch when Pascal published "Lettres Provinciales" in 1657.
