Description

EDGE: The Agile Operating Model That Will Help You Successfully Execute Your Digital Transformation “[The authors’] passion for technology allows them to recognize that for most enterprises in the 21st century, technology is THE business. This is what really separates the EDGE approach. It is a comprehensive operating model with technology at its core.” —From the Foreword by Heidi Musser, Executive Vice President and Principal Consultant, Leading Agile; retired, Vice President and CIO, USAA Maximum innovation happens at the edge of chaos: the messy, risky, and uncertain threshold between randomness and structure. Operating there is uncomfortable but it’s where organizations “invent the future.” EDGE is a set of fast, iterative, adaptive, lightweight, and value-driven tools to achieve digital transformation, and EDGE: Value- Driven Digital Transformation is your guide to using this operating model for innovation. Jim Highsmith is one of the world’s leading agile pioneers and a coauthor of the Agile Manifesto. He, Linda Luu, and David Robinson know from their vast in-the-trenches experience that sustainable digital transformation requires far more than adopting isolated agile practices or conventional portfolio management. This hard, indispensable work involves changing culture and mindset, and going beyond transforming the IT department. EDGE embraces an adaptive mindset in the face of market uncertainty, a visible, value-centered portfolio approach that encourages continual value linkages from vision to detailed initiatives, incremental funding that shifts as strategies evolve, collaborative decision-making, and better risk mitigation. This guide shows leaders how to use the breakthrough EDGE approach to go beyond incremental improvement in a world of exponential opportunities. Build an organization that adapts fast enough to thriveClear away unnecessary governance processes, obsolete “command and control” leadership approaches, and slow budgeting/planning cyclesImprove collaboration when major, fast-paced responses are necessaryContinually optimize investment allocation and monitoring based on your vision and goalsRegister your product for convenient access to downloads, updates, and/or corrections as they become available.

  • Handy operating model for your Digital Transformation
The book serves as a handy blueprint to organize and align operational, development and leadership teams for effective digital transformations. It really is an operating model template that combines principles and practices from Agile and Business Architecture while introducing new ones in the area of Governance. The authors also stress the importance of adopting core values needed to promote adaptive work environments built on trust, oriented around customer value, and guided by courage, imagination and feedback. ... show more

  • Any book not worth rereading isn't worth reading
I have read Jim Highsmith books for years. It seems the 1st time through I say...Meh. I have forced myself to go through them the 2nd time. 3rd, 4th, ++ time is easy. Not sure if it is me or the nature of his writings. Nassim Nicholas Taleb — 'A good book gets better at the second reading. A great book at the third. Any book not worth rereading isn't worth reading.' ... show more

  • Concrete and valuable, written by the best
This is a great complement to Lean Enterprise if you are seeking to transform an organization. This book is particularly concrete around lean portfolio management, something I hadn't found at this level before. We are having our CEO and exec committee read it.

  • Good model for portfolio management at scale
Edge is an interesting step back from early agile evangelists on how to implement the benefits at scale scale in traditional corporates. The LVT model inspired by Toyota’s Hoshin Kanri is very inspiring. The parts about bold and adaptive leadership are more anecdotal and do not give actionable insight on how to foster such leadership in an organisation. ... show more
