‘The main obstacles to improved business responsiveness are slow decision-making, conflicting departmental goals and priorities,
risk- averse cultures and silo-based information.”
Economist Intelligence Unit: “Organisational agility: How business can survive and thrive in turbulent times”
The Market Tension • Building the right thing quicker requires a new organisational design
• We need to Increase alignment and decrease fear
Failing to act will result in:
o Slow decision making, o Finishing less, o Difficulty in validating value to the customer, o Managing to numbers and spend/time measures
Four Themes to Discuss • IT as a strategic capability
• Focus on value first
• Make it safe to explore
• Align people to the customer
