How to Build Long-Term Agility

As the pace of change has accelerated over the past 18 months, organisations have had to become more agile than ever before. Community Members share how they are navigating this transformative period, with Emma Carroll.

Featuring commentary from:

Matthew Blagg, CEO, Criticaleye: Leaders must harness the new ways of operating but also make sure they retain the best of what they did before.

Melanie Lane, CEO, NewMotion, Shell: As demand and diversification increase, the business just slows down, and so we've been resetting our ability to be agile for the long term.

Lorcan O’Connor, Group CEO, Córas Iompair Éireann (CIÉ): To be agile and deal with unforeseen things requires good relationships. You must bring as many people with you as you can.

Steve Parkin, CEO, Mayborn Group: Businesses used to have multiple management levels, which is the antithesis of agile. We’re reducing the layers and trying to build a flatter structure.
