For years the Agile Methodology has been used in software development companies hi. But it has spread to many other industries like finance and telecom.
The Energy sector could benefit from adding some of its tactics to our industry too. These simple steps if implemented correctly could create an innovative culture that raises customer loyalty and speeds up innovation.
Quick Review of basic steps:
1. Meet: Quick meetings to make sure team is on same page to help evaluate our current strategies, customer experiences, and processes.
a. Salespeople bring customer experiences, customer product wish list, and information on barriers that need to be solved.
b. Operations, Engineering, and Management push company objectives in meeting. They listen to team’s input to identify small changes to implement.
c. Trackable items come out of this meeting for all team members.
2. Turn Long Term Goals into Short Term Goals: Each team member uses input from meeting to define small changes to fine tune strategy, processes, and product innovation.
3. Test & Evaluate: We test our new strategies, process, and new innovations. Evaluate their success and share with team.
4. Repeat with the next meeting.
