How Embracing an Agile Mindset Can Help Maximize Distributors Productivity
The COVID-19 pandemic has reinforced that we need to be open-minded and prepared for change, and organizations are no exception – they also need to adapt, or run the risk of being left behind. Today, workplace efficiency and employee productivity are key. So what are some secrets of those organizations that have been able to successfully absorb and adapt to the challenges posed by the pandemic?
The answer: resiliency. According to McKinsey, agile organizations are devised to be fast, adaptable and resilient. Their research found that companies that fared better with managing the impact of COVID-19 were those already with agile practices more deeply ingrained into their enterprise operating models. That is, they had already implemented changes to their business processes prior to the onset of the pandemic. In the pandemic’s wake, many non-agile teams struggled with the transition, reprioritizing their work, and maintaining productivity in the new environment of remote work.
The events of this past year have given us the opportunity to embrace a mindset shift and consider adopting new organizational structures.
