Agility

Management Principles for a Volatile World

About this book

Agility: Management Principles for a Volatile World is required reading for anyone managing individuals in small to medium-sized businesses, large corporations, non-profit organizations, and government offices.

Now is an opportune time for managers to become more agile and shift their position from one of planning, organizing, staffing, directing, or controlling to one of being a curator, architect, conductor, humanist, advocate, and pioneer. To help the reader increase their self-awareness Agility provides a list of principles, questions, and exercises.
