What-is-Agility-resized-600x200

Hannah Koller just presented her EDHEC Master Thesis on how Luxury companies need and apply business agility concepts.
How do the concepts of agility: responsiveness, fluidity, speed, flexibility and innovation meet the concepts of luxury: symbolism, rarity, exclusivity, aesthetic, high price and quality ?

Hannah looks at this from the lens of the 3 strategic agility key based on Doz & Konsonen work:

  • Leadership Unity: Bind leadership team with a shared vision and purpose. Collective decision making and commitment to decision outcomes.
  • Strategic Sensitivity: Seeing and framing opportunities in a new insightful
    way.
  • Resource Fluidity: Fast and efficient resource mobilization and redeployment. Knowledge sharing.
