Flowlab Business Agility Workshop 2017

Okaloa Flowlab workshop: Emergent and self-sustained business agility through flow thinking. In this one-day workshop, Brickell Key Award winner Patrick Steyaert will help you achieve business agility through flow thinking. The workshop is based around a variety of simulations fully immersing participants into the fundamentals of self-sustaining business agility and experience the impact of flow thinking. Agenda: 1) Business agility and flow systems: Introduction to how Business Agility differs from Agile development and the importance of flow systems as a new metaphor for agile organizations and organizations in general. 2) The machine metaphor for organization: In the 1st round of simulation we explore the machine metaphor for organization in a typical command and control, resource efficiency, silo-ed way of working. Not only does this simulation set a baseline for improvement it also allows us to develop a deeper systems view. Participants learn how to observe and analyse such a system of work through the flow systems metaphor (Stocks and flows, constraints, impedance, feedback, uncommon sense). Time: 9:30 am - 5:00 pm.
