20 Mins
Talk
Intermediate
Organization Agility has always been a hot topic for the past couple of years. However, the recent pandemic has redefined the way of doing work and adopting to the new normal, while thriving business and not only sustaining it. The pandemic has stimulated a paradigm shift and has changed the way we interact with our surroundings and address customer needs. The focus is now into building a resilient agile organization and letting go of the traditional ways.
In my talk, ‘Agility in Times of Uncertainty’ I shall be addressing the common issues that organizations are facing post pandemic and the ways they have built their resilience to bounce back after an adverse series of events. The talk shall also discuss about the importance of team work and collaboration to continuously drive change and innovation, while seamlessly adapt to changing market needs in the face of uncertainty.

Personal Agility - A framework beyond frameworks
45 Mins
Talk
Intermediate
Success today requires the agility to constantly rethink, reinvigorate, react and reinvent. To be able to reflect upon what is important to you and discard the things that are of least value to you is an important aspect of being happy and efficient, be it at work or in your personal life. My talk, ‘Personal Agility- a Framework Beyond Frameworks’ will provide you an insight to ensure that you do the right things at the time, and discard the things that are of least or no importance. It will help you to focus and rethink on the values to be adapted in everyday life.
The talk will guide you through the ways to cultivate personal agility from my own experience, where I discovered my own personal agility when I got lost in a jungle in South Australia, few years back. What would you have done then, when you knew that you could not have failed in such an appalling situation? I would be mapping these experiences and stories into an Agile Model, with a tint of Tuckman's stages of group development.
