Summary "Game-changers - the likes of Google, Facebook, Amazon, Tesla, and the Robo-advisors - are revolutionizing swaths of business sectors. They were born with a different mindset, which makes them agile and ambidextrous. They seriously challenge traditional organizations, which have lost their initial impetus.?To adapt to the new business environment, increasingly CEOs are launching programs of management innovation. Yet, executive surveys show that up to 70% of them result in partial or total failures. Such outcome cannot be improved as long as these programs are conceived and carried out with a traditional approach. To innovate management innovation, The Platform of Agile Management integrates 3 principles that help innovate the way people think, 3 paradigms that help innovate the way people behave, and 3 practices that help innovate the way people act. So, while many change-management programs focus on the program, Willy Sussland starts by innovating the management. Thereafter, he proposes a program that is agile because it is steered and supported by the leadership, but that is powered by the people. Moreover, the proposed program of management innovation is not a one-time project, but the framework to keep innovating the management as needed to outperform."--Provided by publisher
