Responsive agile enterprise

Business has never looked easier than it does today. The whole world is just a click away. Not just for you, but equally for your customers. If they cannot get exactly what they need from you, they will get it somewhere else.

In Europe, around a third of consumers have tried different brands in the past three months. More than 40 percent have switched retailers in search of better prices, higher discounts or faster delivery. This shows how fast people move, and how fast businesses must respond to keep up.

IS YOUR BUSINESS STRUCTURE HOLDING BACK YOUR AGILITY?

Obviously, you have a clear service to offer. But delivering it in a way that meets the needs of your customers requires a responsive setup. One that can effectively respond to possible changing needs on the one hand, and renewed (tech) possibilities on the other.

The larger your organization, the harder it becomes to stay in sync with your customers. At a strategic level, it is crucial to design your digital enterprise in a way that separates what needs to remain stable, from what must be able to change rapidly. True agility is not just about speed. It is about organizing for adaptability, creating space for innovation and responsiveness while protecting what needs consistency underneath.

Anderson MacGyver supports you in developing the ability to operate at multiple speeds. We help you find the right balance between stability and responsiveness by shaping a multimodal operating model that enables both.​

Before we continue! This is a topic that becomes most valuable when explored in the context of your own organization. If you want to strengthen your enterprise’s responsiveness, feel free to reach out to Edwin, Else, Peter or Lisa.   

Ok, let’s continue with our approach!

Responsive agile enterprise

Our approach

Set the direction

Set the direction

To become a responsive agile enterprise, you need to understand the dynamics of your business activities. Some parts are stable and predictable, others change rapidly and require flexibility. The ‘modality’ of each domain matters, especially the degree of dynamics, whether a business activity benefits from stability or requires flexibility. We help elaborate your vision, define the required behaviors and set a clear direction for the change ahead.​​

Typical output ​ 

Design the solution

Design the solution

Together we cascade strategic goals into practical execution, from epics all the way to user stories. We focus leadership, tooling and IT architecture on creating agility through modularity. We set the organizational heartbeat, align teams to value creation and steer the execution through portfolio management and value tracking.​

Typical output​ 

  • Organization design
  • Governing agile: designed interplay of teams with different drives and working in different speeds
  • Roles, responsibilities and competencies
  • Change activation across mindset, behavior and ways of working
Implement the change

Implement the change

Change needs to be owned from within. That’s why we help you create a network of internal change champions from day one. These ambassadors make the change visible early, even during the design phase. We guide the implementation and help transfer ownership to this network so that the change continues beyond the project.​

Typical output 

  • Transition plan
  • Equipped change champions
  • Change orchestration, e.g. decision-making, communication and evaluation
