Adaptive Organisation (I) and (II)
Three related news items:
- Adaptive Organisation (I) part I of Adaptive Organisation: Business agility at every scale has been out a few days now
- Chapter 4. Between and Across Scales: What the scaling frameworks don’t tell you, the first chapter of part II is just out
- April 27th meetup: Between spaces, scopes, and scales: What the scaling frameworks don’t tell you
Just two more chapters to go now! You can start part I now, claim your certificate for that, and you’ll be well placed to finish part II by the end of April.
