This book illustrates the Agile transformation journey of a consulting organization. It consists of nine main chapters, each focusing on specific aspects of transformation. These include establishing value in business, holistic recruitment and retention, innovating performance appraisals, rethinking organizational structure, redesigning leadership roles, streamlining measurement and reward systems, and improving career paths. Some specific processes, such as corporate decision making, SMILE (budget for business improvement at employee discretion), project selection, holiday leave, and career coaching are also described. All of the transformations described build up on Management 3.0, a collection of management principles and practices that fit perfectly in an Agile world.
Our economies are changing rapidly. Product life cycles are getting shorter, market and customer demands are constantly changing. Customers are no longer looking for a product but rather for a specific solution which best fits their own specific needs. New technologies arise and offer radically new approaches for solving existing problems as well as offering new options. Old competencies are losing relevance, new competencies are in demand. When working with students, committees, and leaders these topics are dominant and lead me to the insight that these changes are significantly impacting the work of today’s managers.
This creates conflict between employees and managers, especially when considering established management structures and styles. Employees no longer want to be “traditionally” led, as the demands upon them are soaring. They demand the right to have a say in more matters and expect their own needs to receive a central focus. Adapting the organization to increasingly important external influences, namely organizational change, also requires the active role of management. Without active leadership, successful change will not happen.
Management 3.0 is a term coined by Jurgen Appelo in his book of the same title. It is a toolbox of agile management practices along with a set of principles that these practices must follow to qualify. All Management 3.0 practices are free to use and can be found at https:// management30. com or in Jurgen’s books, in particular in “Managing for Happiness.” Whenever you read “Management 3.0” throughout this work, you know that we used one of these practices, and you know where to look it up for more information. You also know that the practice was taken from Jurgen’s work.
You probably still wonder where the name comes from and what the number means. After all, we are talking about industry 4.0, so why do we still use Management 3.0? The answer is that Jurgen defined Management 1.0 as “Doing the wrong thing,” which is basically tayloristic top-down management. In today’s fast-paced world, you simply can no longer succeed with this type of management. Management 2.0 is described as “doing the right thing wrong.” This means, having great ideas like focusing on employees, teams, and quality, but using systemically flawed methods that do not look at the overall system to achieve that. Management 3.0 instead tries to look at organizations as complex adaptive systems and offers methods that are adequate for this kind of environment. Therefore, Jurgen defines it as “doing the right thing.” If you prefer another name, that’s fine. Personally, I prefer “agile leadership” as a general term. You will also notice throughout this book that we tried other methods that are not described by Management 3.0. That’s fine. Management 3.0 is not a methodology that sends the process inquisition after you to throw you into purgatory. It’s just a toolbox. Extend and adapt it, whenever you feel the need.
The book is of practical relevance for managers and Agile coaches who want to learn how to approach Agile transformation.
