High performing businesses manage through periods of stability interspersed with periods of change.

All businesses undergo periods of change.  But businesses that struggle with sustainable performance often don’t change soon enough, fast enough, or they implement the wrong change. They can stumble when trying to change due to an inability to deal with the duality of uncertainty and risk.

• The risk of making the wrong change inhibits taking any action.

• Uncertainty about the future suppresses taking action to prepare for it in the present.

Change initiatives become more uncertain and higher risk if the Business Landscape is not understood or is ill defined.  The Business Landscape can feel complex, complicated, and ambiguous.  If this is the case, you can’t reliably evaluate the prospects for change and effectively prepare for probable future states.

Agile Innovating ™ envisions the impact of changes in the Business Landscape. By reducing uncertainty and minimizing risk, we enable your business to act sooner and implement new solutions faster.

We call envisioning the potential impact of changes “Sensemaking”.

Utilizing our unique Status Quo Model, we make sense of “What is changing”, “What is likely to change”, and “What has the potential to change” in the Business Landscape and anticipate the speed and impact of those changes.

The Status Quo Model equips you to make the most consequential business decisions any leadership team must make:

• What changes should you be preparing to make, and why?

• When do those changes need to be operational and achieve impact?

• How much change, and how fast do you need to implement?
