Steve Denning discusses the dynamics of the ongoing transformation from the Traditional Economy of hierarchical bureaucracy to the radically different Agile management practices of the Creative Economy.
He reviews the challenges that lie ahead, including the difficulties of implementation, communicating Agile to general managers, the risk of fake Agile and a regression to bureaucracy, and resolving the pervasive tension between Agile teams at the working level and the way the organization at the top is run.
