The Strategility Method

The toolbox shows how strategy content can be systematically developed in an agile, light-footed way and with the joy of experimentation. The team of authors explains how the advantages of agile methods can be utilised and how they can be combined with proven and familiar elements of conventional strategy development. Using many examples from different sectors and sizes of organisations and administrations, they show which approaches lead to success and which stumbling blocks you may encounter.
