EMBRACING AGILE PRACTICES TO MOULD MANAGEMENT IN THE VIRTUAL WORLD

Our world is going through an era of digital transformation. Organizations globally have adapted to a new normal which is primarily virtual. With many organizations moving to a digital workplace, Agile practices can be used by companies to encourage interactions, customer collaboration, flexibility, and product delivery in a virtual world.

Agility introduced in a virtual world will bring in fluidity, ingenuity and will help to ensure company-wide process management and effective cross-functional communication. It inculcates the values of versatility, resilience and innovation in businesses and individuals by allowing them to deal with ambiguity and volatility even during uncertain times.

During these times, companies must constantly adapt to the changing dynamic needs of the hour by bringing agility into the business model. It is not just a question of surviving, becoming agile is a pathway to thriving.

Points of Discussion:

  • How effectively can new age managers incorporate such practices to increase effectiveness and efficiency?
  • Which strategies can be implemented for effective communications while managing virtually?
  • How to manage cost time and quality of Product/Project by introducing Agile in an organization?
  • What changes can we expect to see in an organization in the Post-COVID era?
  • What areas of business can incorporate Agile practices for management in remote working conditions?
  • Do we require modifications in existing work culture in the current working environment?
  • How will Agile practices increase productivity in the virtual world?

Integrity and Ethics has been the foundation of civilization and the anchor of mankind since ages. Of late, due to the corroding influence of greed and lust, man seems to have given a backdoor entry to unethical practices in his stride and seems to rationalize the same.
