The Delivery Space Podcast - Govern Agility

“You want your organisation to be transformational but if you don’t address governance it becomes transitional” Phil Gadzinski.

In this week’s episode of The Delivery Space podcast Phil&Sharon spoke about how governance and agility work hand in hand. We did a deep dive into the book Govern Agility, co-authored with Tony Ponton. Far from governance adding bureaucracy, when applied correctly it is the bedrock of what Phil & Tony terms as the five stanchions of agile governance

.➡Conductive Leadership: Asking leaders to guide and support rather than directly control

➡Sensible Transparency: Increases trust and aids speed of information flow

➡Patterns of Work: Good patterns help to optimize and evolve

➡Data Driven Reasoning: Explores how, what and why we measure

➡Humanity as the Cornerstone: Removal of mechanistic controls, creating greater trust
