One of the core competencies of business agility that is often emphasized is Lean-Agile Leadership. This competency is crucial because it sets the foundation for the entire organization's agile transformation. Lean-Agile Leadership involves leaders who embody and promote agile values and principles, fostering a culture of trust, collaboration, and continuous learning.
Lean-Agile leaders are responsible for creating an environment where teams can thrive and innovate. They do this by providing clear vision and direction, empowering teams to make decisions, and encouraging experimentation and learning from failures. This competency emphasizes the importance of servant leadership, where leaders support and enable their teams rather than dictate and control.
For women business owners, adopting Lean-Agile Leadership can lead to a more inclusive and empowering work culture. It encourages diverse perspectives, which can drive creativity and innovation. Additionally, it helps build resilient teams that are capable of adapting to change and delivering high-quality products and services to customers.
Another core competency that is often highlighted is Agile Product Delivery. This competency focuses on delivering value to customers through a continuous flow of products and services. It involves understanding customer needs, prioritizing work based on value, and delivering small, incremental improvements. Agile Product Delivery ensures that businesses can respond quickly to market changes and customer feedback, enhancing customer satisfaction and loyalty [1, 2].
