Synopsis
The Agile Performance Holarchy: A model for evaluating agile performance
Agile executives and leaders in both the public and
private sectors have been demanding a way to objectively evaluate and
understand agile performance in their organizations, and have been
yearning for a model for building agile capability across the
enterprise. Finally, there is a model to both evaluate agile
performance and build agile capability; The Agile Performance Holarchy
(APH), which draws from both the CMMI and a broad range of Agile
frameworks, is that model. The APH provides a fresh new approach to
evaluating agile performance and building Agile capability through a
series of interdependent performance circles and behavior holons, which
exist and thrive within a collection of self-team.
The APH is very different from previous models (like CMMI, ITIL, etc) in that it is “self-organizing,” and a peer-to-peer model that does not depend on the top-down command-and-control structure to be successful.
Highlights:
Learn new ways to evaluate agile performance
Learn how self-organization can bring a greater level of agile capability
Build agile capability with an objective model based on the CMMI, Agile Frameworks, and independent research
This meeting will be valuable to you if you are leading, or a seeking to lead, an Agile team or organization. Jeff will highlight how this innovative model works and goals you can use to raise your organization's Agile performance from one level to the next, all the way to Mastery.
