About the authors
- This is a timely revision of this insightful book by Linda Holbeche. The book draws on multiple perspectives and case examples to support why and how organizations and individuals should invest in building an agile organization. A strong case is built for how agility, flexibility and resilience are all concepts that need to be given equal focus by organizational leaders; the reflective questions and checklists presented in each chapter clearly support this.
