Everything, except management. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eManagers of the digital age need operating models that are collaborative, ethical, and effective. Models that reveal opportunities for managers to deploy Agile and Lean methods, as well as complex situations where leadership means carefully creating the conditions for success. In other words, models that support managers' transition from providing all the answers, to leaders who help clarify objectives and discover how to achieve them. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn this short book, I introduce The Chalice as an upgrade on the pyramid metaphor. The chalice represents an operating model that both puts customers on top and engages with the beliefs and diversity of the staff who create value for an entire ecosystem.\u003cbr\u003eUnique features of the chalice include: \u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConnecting prioritization and customer value delivery processes using feedback mechanisms as controls.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStructuring prioritization as a process, whose performance must be measured and improved.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAchieving predictable and agile delivery to customers by selecting only appropriate agile, or plan-driven, controls.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRevealing the tension sources that create conflicting priorities and confusion if not addressed directly.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCreating a pluralistic ecosystem that relies on collaboration and diversity to develop shared understanding and profit from innovation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003eI provide just enough information in this book to share the big picture. I trust that more adventurous amongst you will try some of the ideas it generates in your imagination. Subsequent books will explore the sections of the chalice in more detail, building on this foundation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-16130992\"\u003eRuss Lewis\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Independently Published\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/09\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 84\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.27lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.17d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798391416739\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 8391416739\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-BUS\"\u003eBusiness \u0026amp; Economics\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-BUS041000\"\u003eManagement | General\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Independently Published","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44394970775789,"sku":"8391416739","price":9.74,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/8097\/6621\/products\/img_b9b38891-0189-40d7-a5fb-01750a288c92.jpg?v=1699549142","url":"https:\/\/sureshotbooks.com\/products\/an-operating-model-for-business-agility-agile-for-managers-of-the-digital-age-9798391416739","provider":"SureShot Books Publishing LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
