Business Agility: For Business Analysts...Bridging the divide between Technology & Business
Presented by Mona Roccia and Bill Walton from Agile Bridge Solutions
To compete effectively as a modern techno-business, your company’s ability to be more agile as a whole (business and IT) is vital to sense and respond to market opportunities.
Yet, while your company's agile efforts "scaling within technology" using various scaling models (like SAFe) has found success, the business has not been fully engaged (Only 12% of agile adoption in IT is aligned or supported by the business: CA Technologies survey of 150 executives 2017, “The State of Business Agility,”). As a result, the true potential of agility - to help organizations sense and respond to compete and deliver value - has not been realized.
To solve this problem, your company will need to bridge the divide between technology and the business. In response,Agile Bridge Solutions (ABS). ABS is a business alignment consulting firm that merges missions between business and IT on common long term agile journey.
