Import from wordpress feed
November 18, 2024
Many leaders believe they are open to change and champions of innovation. But what if you’re unknowingly blocking progress without even realizing it? This type of resistance, which I call ghost resistance, isn’t obvious. It’s quiet, often hidden behind rational behaviors and logical decisions.

The Agile Customer-Centric Manifesto (ACCM) recognizes that there are 'Elephants in the room' we often forget in Business and its Sub-Functions: People, Diversity, respect for Privacy and More.

We’re breaking down silos, promoting cross-functional collaboration, based on Social Responsibility and Advocacy for Internal and External Customers, within Business Agility and all the Business Sub-Functions - We are 'reverse-engineering' what Agile's Customer Centricity Manifesto is based on inspirations from diverse Manifestos such as Development, Marketing, Sales, People and HR Agile Manifestos, as well as Sources such as Scrum Values, Declaration of Interdependence and Agile Value linkages Research.
