Agility Consulting consults, coaches and trains businesses to become more Focused, Fast and Flexible by providing practical tools to help them respond better and faster at enterprise, team and individual levels.

When applied actively across three enterprise domains (people, processes, and technology) The AGILE Model® creates focused, fast, and flexible organizations poised for success in a world filled with volatility, uncertainty, complexity and ambiguity, as shared in the book, Focused, Fast & Flexible: Creating Agility Advantage in a VUCA World, authored by Agility Consulting Principals, Dr. Nick Horney and Tom O’Shea.
Waggl is designed to help organizations become more agile by collecting and distilling anonymous, real-time feedback from employees. Unlike traditional survey and polling platforms, Waggl creates a virtual dialogue with participants by asking open-ended questions where favorite responses can be ‘voted up.’ The platform provides a variety of templates for users to cultivate feedback, in only a few clicks. By integrating Agility Consulting’s world class IP into Waggl’s platform, enterprise clients of both organizations will now be able to subscribe to a library of suggested content that can be used to dive deep into the characteristics that comprise the AGILE model. Enterprises can choose an area of focus to explore, and gain immediate access to lists of suggested topics and questions, then use Waggl to conduct pulse surveys to groups of employees. Users can set up and send pulses in minutes, and results are available immediately to administrators and participants in the form of easily digestible infographics.
