A Powerful Tool for Continuous Growth & Strategic Improvement

Business Agility is a set of organizational capabilities, behaviors, and ways of working that affords your business the freedom, flexibility, and resilience to achieve its purpose. 

 

But whether you’re trying to become an agile organization or you’re trying to maintain the agility you’ve got, the process of growing your organization in an agile way is a journey.

 

And the journey is never straightforward.

  • It’s not always clear what’s working and what’s not
  • It’s difficult to tell where there’s resistance and why
  • It’s hard to know where to allocate resources (and for how long)
  • It’s hard to see the whole system and know what to do

Your organization’s Business Agility Profile™ is a research-backed evaluation and report designed to cut through the noise — so you can get off the rollercoaster, get clarity, and get going.

How Does the Business Agility Profile™ Work?

 

You have to know where you are to get where you’re going, right?

For organizations of any size who want to grow, thrive, and take advantage of new opportunities in an unpredictable world, the Business Agility Profile is a key mechanism for assessment and forward momentum. 

What is the shape of agility in your organization?

The Business Agility Profile™ takes a unique approach to Business Agility assessment. It incorporates four fundamental principles:

  1. Business Agility is an ongoing journey, with no end state
  2. An organization will have a range of excellence with higher and lower capabilities
  3. Business Agility can be demonstrated in thousands of different ways, using different approaches, practices, frameworks, and operating models
  4. Business Agility is a set of cultural and behavioral capabilities (not specific processes or practices) that span an organization

What matters is how your people, systems, and processes all come together to deliver value to your customers. 

How Do You Become Certified?

The Business Agility Profile™ takes a total of 4–6 weeks from the moment we lay the groundwork for our collaborative adventure into your organization’s Business Agility.

Step 1 — PREPARATION: The Business Agility Profile™ begins with verifying the eligibility of your organization, determining how many Business Agility Profiles™ are necessary based on the size and complexity of your company and understanding the demographics of your organization. We will also complete paperwork and a Nondisclosure Agreement. 

Step 2 — ASSESSMENT: The Business Agility Profile™ assessment is a survey conducted across your organization to highlight and evaluate 13 Business Agility capabilities and 80+ behaviors.  Over the course of the assessment, you will submit supporting documentation and evidence (including employee engagement surveys, HR policies, and org charts) for evaluation. The assessment requires no "onsite" time.

Step 3 — EVALUATION: The Business Agility Institute will conduct a detailed review and evaluation of the evidence and assessment data you have provided, using our proprietary evaluation model. BAI experts will document these findings and recommendations in a detailed report. We provide clear, data-driven charts and graphics to visualize what’s working and what’s not — what’s helping and what’s not — on your journey to agility. 

Step 4 — CERTIFICATION: The Business Agility Profile™ is the first step toward becoming a Certified Agile Organization™ — a trusted designation reflecting how far along your organization has come in its agile journey. For qualifying organizations, the Business Agility Institute will grant you the title of Certified Agile Organization™ as well as a separate star rating publicly recognizing where your organization is on the journey to agility.

The future is full of possibilities — are you ready?
