O.O.D.A.-Loop - Developing Strategic-Agility

To have a strategy for achieving your goals is one but executing on strategy is another. The O.O.D.A. Loop -Observe, Orient, Decide, Act- was developed by USAF Col John Boyd and successfully applied in many armed conflicts, including the first Gulf war. The objective of this methodology is to speed-up the decision-cycle; to be flexible in ones approach to the task at hand and to be quicker to act. This program discusses the features and benefits of an agile organization and the adjustments required within the business system to facilitate Strategic Agility.
