The Adaptive Enterprise
Organizations faced with complex and evolving challenges need strong change capabilities. At the same time, they need to stay in control.
Traditionally, change is supported by mid- and long-term plans, directing the organization to a new future state (the ‘what’). However, in today’s reality it has proven to be much more successful to focus efforts and developments on ‘how’ to realize change.
An adaptive enterprise, doesn’t know what the future looks like, but is well prepared for any changes that are necessary for future success.
The adaptive enterprise has the capability to:
Innovate
Understand the benefits and costs of new technologies to maximize their potential
Simplify
Address legacy, complexity and uncertainty to make room for change
Decide
Make decisions at the right time with the right information
Accelerate
Speed up and change proactively to stay ahead of the curve
Control
Balance the rate of change with risks, compliance and impact
Collaborate
Build, enable and empower teams to execute change
Digitizing Change and Control
The push and pull of change and control is traditionally a boardroom balancing act. However, in a truly adaptive enterprise decisions need to be made faster and at many levels of the organization at the same time. This requires a single source of truth to show where you stand and help you decide where to go.
Powerful software enables you to quickly analyze your current situation, and effectively test and plan changes. This simplifies decision making, lowers the risk of failure, and speeds up innovation.
In today’s digital age, it is all about speed and effectively using IT to digitize your daily operations. Download the eBook to discover how BiZZdesign can help your organization to become an adaptive enterprise.
