AgileSHIFT®

AGILESHIFT

AgileSHIFT combines agile management methods and Lean thinking into one systematic framework that enables companies to prepare for disruptive business changes.

Agile methods have established themselves in software development and more broadly in the IT industry. AgileSHIFT enables companies to develop enterprise-wide agility and avoid silo mentality.

What does transformation mean?

Business transformation is a significant change in the way an organization conducts all or part of its business. Transformation takes many forms, from small-scale local processes or tool changes to large-scale changes that shape the way an organization interacts with and serves its customers.

Most existing organizations are making an effort to change their way of working. Regardless of the sector in which they operate, traditional ways of working are no longer sufficient to remain competitive and survive.

This has been influenced by e.g.

• Increasing customer demand and expectations

• Rise of market-shaping competitors

• Traditional processes that no longer serve their purpose

• A corporate culture that does not support agile adaptation to market changes

The most significant and powerful factor has been the proliferation of digital technology. Digitalization has brought new players seeking to change the laws of the market.

What is AgileSHIFT?

AgileSHIFT is an easy-to-customize framework that guides organizations to drive business change and succeed in a constantly evolving or transforming market. AgileSHIFT's guiding principles are to create value for the customer through early and through frequent releases.
