I have always promoted the idea that we should be agile with agile, taking an agile approach to institutionalizing agile. A key is to take early, bold, small action steps that are low risk to get things moving and then learn, adjust and iterate from there. 1st gear, 2nd gear, 3rd gear.
I have worked with hundreds and thousands of CEOs and Executives:
Below are some easy, low-cost 1st gear options you can get started with and then progressively shift into higher gears from there. Virtual has always been a key aspect of being agile with agile, even more so now in a post COVID pandemic era. There is no time like the present to become a student of agility.
Confidential coaching virtually and face to face, in rounds of 13 sessions (typically 13 weeks/1 Quarter, can be faster/slower) through the lens of Everyday Agile Leadership and an Agility Operating System (AOS), with further rounds as desired. Utilizing various technology platforms to enhance the agile coaching.
"Mike is at the top of a very distinguished list of the best mentors and coaches in business. He strikes the rare balance between the discipline of a framework, personal and professional compassion, and the nudges to look inward and outward to maximize executive and company talents and mission. As a CEO, you might be able to run your organization effectively without guidance from a mentor like Mike, but why would you want to risk not giving it your best? Lebron James has a nutritionist and personal trainer, Eric Schmidt and Steve Jobs had a coach at Google and Apple, and most of the world's peak performers have similar support teams. Add Mike to yours!

Virtual or face to face, if you are planning a retreat with your leadership team, from one day events to multi day events, often as part of a recurring cycle (quarterly, twice per year, annually) to assure ongoing accountability and iteration. Shifting into a next gear of enrollment, alignment & engagement.
Need immediate help navigating your business through unprecedented turbulence and transformation? Especially in a post COVID pandemic era. Let me be your virtual co-pilot Chief Agility Officer, changing your relationship with the 5 key attributes of agility and evolving the 5 New Roles of Everyday Agile Leaders. Lim
Speaking to teams & peer groups, virtually & face-to-face, with webinars & workshops of different formats, from 1 (introductory) to 4 (often quarterly) to 12 (often monthly) sessions, all resulting in participants having a "Traction Plan" to apply their learnings & drive traction on a breakthrough trajectory.
Custom combinations of all of the above, virtual and in person, of the scale and scope needed for the impact desired, tackling the biggest priority issues challenges and opportunities. Meeting you where you are and finding a best pathway forwards. I'll even be willing to participate in a dunk tank at key events!
Face to face and virtual peer group experiences inside your organization to build trust, transparency and teamwork to all new depths, as a fulcrum for taking agility to all new heights and driving Peernovation: peer powered innovation. Tapping into the deeper seated power of peers as a new experience for your team.
I love occupying the agile seat around the table, essential in assuring that agile conversation-flow is always on the agenda and being compounded over time, not least of all with Agile-Dashboards, Agile-SWOT-Analyses and VUCA-Radar-Scanning. As a member or as the Chair helping assure the desired return-on-investment.
If you are planning a bigger event with your organization, network and affiliates, virtual on in person, to broaden awareness, orientation and inspiration.
