Obeya 大部屋 : A Systems Thinking Approach to Business Agility

We believe that executives must practice what they preach. If they want teams to be transparent and agile, they need to practice themselves and lead by example. This talk will share some Agile & Lean techniques, applied in a new way, to help organizations understand their constraints so they can transparently carry forward their journey to business agility. “Seeing the Whole” includes organizational design, customers, products, demand and applications. Your journey to business agility has to start where you are today, so gaining a deep understanding of your current state is critical to create your change plan. We will share the techniques we use to help companies create their own plan and a pragmatic approach to scaling. As well as examples of companies that are on this journey.
