Description
What is Agility?
Another word for agility is nimbleness. In business context:
- Leaders and team members make sure what they do connects to the organisation's strategy. They build relationships, support, and momentum for their ideas with internal and external stakeholders.
- Leaders and team members learn what their competitors are doing, what customers want and need, and where technologies are moving. They understand the context in which their company and its people operate.
- Leaders and team members coordinate work with groups around the organisation and larger ecosystem to ensure other departments are on board and collaborating.

Relations of Agility within Leading into the future (and Corporate- & organisational futuring)
.
.
There exists a close vertical relationship within Leading into the future:
- Outer focus: Agility
- Other focus: Value development
- Inner focus: Leading
.
On the Outer focus level, an affiliation exists with Organisational futuring:
- Human capital
- Requisite organisation
- Activa- & enablers management
- Compliance management
.
And Corporate futuring:
- Operational Strategy
- Financial management
- Commercial management
- Business model
.
In concrete terms, this means:
- The trio - 'Leading', 'Value development' and 'Agility' - is inextricably linked.
- Your 'Agility' contributes substantially to 'Human capital', 'Requisite organisation', 'Activa- & enablers' and Compliance management.
- Furthermore, 'Agility' is part of the Outer focus level where 'Organisational-' and 'Corporate futuring' meet.
