Agile People: Recent Episodes

david thomson

Agile People Principles support an increasingly autonomous workforce that is global, mobile, transient, and connected.

People expect organizations to be transparent and dynamic where they are given the freedom and safety to experiment and express themselves.

Pia-Maria Thorén, the founder of Agile People, gathered 35 Agile People Coaches and Facilitators around the globe. Together they co-created the book 'Agile People Principles - Your Call to Action for the Future of Work.

Agile People Principles is a comprehensive guide for Leaders and HR Professionals to attain or sharpen an 'agile mindset' to best serve their organisations. Through personal observations, case studies, research and reference tools, our contributors have created an invaluable tool to confront the challenges within a volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous (VUCA) world.

Commencing on the 10th June 2021 at 1.00pm (BST), we will launch our first episode, followed by a new one every 2 weeks thereafter. In addition to that we will of course be dropping bonus episodes, so please keep checking where ever you play your podcasts, for new episodes as they become available.
