Many talks about doing Agile versus being Agile. The session presents a scientific definition of Agility, how to move from doing Agile to being Agile. Characteristics of Agility that can be enhanced, inhibitors the can be reduced and removed and contexts where Agility is an advantage are all presented in this session. All this enables you, a team and an organization to decide when and to know how to go from doing Agile to being Agile. References The content of this session is based on studies and experiments promoted by U.S. DoD and NATO research and presented in these books: The Agility Advantage: A Survival Guide For Complex Enterprises and Endeavors; David Alberts; 2011. Power to the Edge: Command...Control...in the Information Age; David Alberts and Richard Hayes; 2003.

Lightning talk: Active Agility, the magic ingredient of Lean and Agile
- 1. Active Agility The ‘magic’ ingredient of Lean & Agile Luca Minudel
- 3. Definition of Active Agility
- 4. A Scientific Definition of Agility Agility is a new way of thinking about and preparing for the unanticipated. Is the capability to successfully effect, cope with, and exploit changes in circumstances.
- 5. Active Agility Characteristics => Skills to develop Versatility Flexibility Resilience Adaptability Responsiveness Innovativeness
- 6. Enhancing Agility Characteristics Adaptability (active) the ability to recognize changes in the environment and in shifting priorities and rapid change, identify the critical elements of the new situation and trigger changes accordingly
- 7. Studies & Experiments results help to Develop Active Agility skills Reduce or remove inhibitors of Agility Discover how much Agility do you need?
- 8. Active Agility We cannot always decide when change will come,
- 9. Active Agility We cannot always decide when change will come, But
- 10. Active Agility We cannot always decide when change will come, But It’s us who can shape the future and decide what the change will look like in the end

- Passive Agility: The innate qualities or design of the entity (its passive component) permit it to operate under the conditions that form the solid ellipse without the need to sense and respond to conditions. Active Agility: allows the entity to extend the set of conditions under which it can successfully operate Is the degree to which one can maintain the level of performance after a change in the circumstances.
