BOOK EXCERPT:

Learn concepts and practices in OKR with the experiences of 42 people leading the adoption of OKRs in various sectors of the Brazilian and international market. Learn about the challenges and best practices in a journey of OKR implementation. “In this work, another goal of this fantastic initiative called Jornada Colaborativa, we have a deepening of the concepts, context-based applications and, mainly, real market cases, which will surely help you in this VUCA/BANI world where short-term objectives are increasingly necessary.” - Vitor Massari, preface Jornada Colaborativa Together we are smarter and more lives are transformed! Once upon a time there was a university professor who dreamed of releasing a book when he finished his master’s degree in 2007. After some ideas for publication on topics such as Microsoft certification, project management and service management, the dream began to be fulfilled in 2017 with the book “Jornada DevOps” (DevOps Journey), but some obstacles stopped its evolution after the definition of the final structure for the official EXIN certification and the writing of three chapters. In September 2018, during a lecture at PUC Minas, a click emerged: “would other people passionate about DevOps help with collaborative writing?” Dozens of people accepted the invitation and the book was released to 350 people on June 6, 2019 at the SulAmérica Convention Center in Rio de Janeiro, after intense coordinated work with people from several cities who had never worked together before. After this successful experience with many learning experiences, the team’s escalation created great friendships, new initiatives and a donation of R$ 251,500.00 to institutions, with 11 books launched. We dream of transforming more lives with collective intelligence and the support of friendly companies... Antonio Muniz Founder of Jornada Colaborativa, organization and curation of 20 books.

Agile Transformation

eBook Download

BOOK EXCERPT:

Agile Transformation is the answer for organisations that need to modernise to meet the challenges imposed by Digital Transformation and the new behaviours of the increasingly dissatisfied and volatile consumer, whose desires can be met quickly and are within reach of their palm. In this new complex world of accelerated change, there is no room for organisations that still have their processes, policies and management models based on bureaucracy, rigid and highly hierarchical organisational structures, with practices that worked in the past. These organisations have difficulties in anticipating market changes and disruption, which are hitting industry by industry and putting at risk their own survival or, at least, their ability to prosper. With this book, you will have a new perspective on teamwork and get to know genuine collaboration. We will present very simple and practical working methods that guarantee the delivery of value from your team, through a new management model: agile and collaborative. These concepts were put into practice, with different emphases, formats and methods, in various organisations with great success. And this was the motivation for writing the book: to disseminate the transforming experience, which was one of the foundations for the creation of the startup Zehnk, where the author is co-founder. The objective is to share this experience and show organisations that it is possible to build motivated, proactive and innovative teams, able to work in an integrated manner, with total transparency in communication and with common objectives, even if their members do not belong to the same area, department or company. Or are not physically together. True collaborative work happens when the team has autonomy, self-management and responsibility, generating deep engagement and incredible results. It is where everyone seeks what is best for the organisation and its product or service: results and value for the business are pu

The 6 Enablers Of Business Agility

eBook Download

BOOK EXCERPT:

Adopting the latest agile tools and practices won't be enough to respond to rapid market change. Leaders must first lay the groundwork by creating the right environment for these tools to work. Many managers struggle to install the underlying organizational operating system for business agility. High-performing agile organizations depend on the strength of six key enabling factors: leadership, culture, structure, people, governance, and ways of working. This book explains why these factors are important and how they work together to increase organizational agility. Real-world examples, stories, and tools will help leaders get realistic about the scope of changes needed in their organizations and show them how to get started. Karim Harbott does not offer a book of recipes. Instead, he focuses on mindset, principles, and general patterns. This book summarizes of the most important factors in increasing organizational agility and why they work, which leaders will need to consider in a so-called agile transformation. Because every organization is different, each will have its own route to agility and high performance. Managers will need to tackle all the areas that are crucial to creating an environment in which any chosen approach can work.
