What is an Agile Organization?
An agile organization is a term applied to organizations which are quick in responding to changes in the marketplace or environment. Agile organizations are resilient, innovative, possibly disruptive, have strong adaptive cultures.
Leaders need to realize the world is different and they need to change paradigms. They need to move from the old paradigm of treating organizations like machines to building an organization as a living organism.
But how does that work in real life?
The key principles are found when one analyzes and dissects the most agile companies such as Google, Alibaba. Dig deep and you will find eight trademarks that enable network of teams within a people-centered culture that operates in rapid learning and fast decision cycles.
Here are the 8 Principles of Agile Organizations

The consequence of not reinventing your organization
In the private sector, not being innovative can lead to the demise of an organization. Giants like Blockbuster Video and Kodak are examples of industry titans that became extinct by not being innovative and adapting to the current environment.
Stubbornness in this sense - i.e. lacking the drive to change - can be dangerous because it means that you could be left behind whilst every-THING around you is running miles ahead (because they decided to innovate). No more is this obvious that in the current Coronavirus situation we face today.
We need to change. Leaders need to change. Organizations need to Change.
