Built for Agility: Leading in Uncertain Times
Thursday, November 12, 2009 8:00 AM

In the face of increasing market and economic uncertainties, the need for strategic and organizational agility seems obvious. But when it comes to organization change, the goal of most organizations is to adapt...it is not to become adaptable.

Making one successful change is not the same as being agile. The purpose of this working session is to learn about the "built to change" model of agility, apply some of the research-based tools developed by CEO, and discuss the role of HR in supporting agile organizations.

The session will be facilitated by Ed Lawler, Chris Worley, and Theresa Welbourne.During the workshop, you will work with Drs. Lawler, Welbourne, and Worley to:

  • Diagnose your organization's agility profile and compare with world-class benchmarks
  • Understand and work with the dimensions of the Built to Change agility framework
  • Learn to use the extreme strategizing process within your organization
  • Support extreme strategizing with maximum surface area structures
  • Build Fast HR practices to match changing business needs
  • Create change capability to support continuous transformation
