Many organisations struggle to differentiate between what can be approached with flexible, adaptive methods and what requires deliberate, structured planning. This talk will demystify that tension, offering clear strategies to help leaders align their efforts for maximum clarity, pace, and impact.<\/p>\n
Through real-world examples from global transformation programs, Jess Tayel will illustrate how to run initiatives at “two speeds,” avoiding common pitfalls such as overcomplicating iterative work or rushing foundational changes. You will leave with tools to prioritise effectively, align your teams, and deliver meaningful customer value, all while reducing confusion and maintaining focus on what truly matters.[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.27.3″ _module_preset=”default” global_module=”626″ global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.27.3″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”||0px||false|false” custom_padding=”||0px||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.27.3″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_post_nav in_same_term=”off” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” title_font=”|700|||||||” title_font_size=”1em” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_post_nav][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.27.3″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”0px||0px||false|false” custom_padding=”||0px||false|false” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.27.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_button button_url=”https:\/\/agileaustralia.com.au\/2025\/speakers\/” button_text=”Back to Speakers page” button_alignment=”center” _builder_version=”4.27.3″ _module_preset=”default” custom_button=”on” button_text_color=”#26AEBB” button_bg_color=”#FFFFFF” button_border_color=”#26AEBB” button_font=”||||||||” button_icon=”#||divi||400″ button_icon_placement=”left” button_on_hover=”off” global_colors_info=”{}” button_text_color__hover_enabled=”on|hover” button_text_color__hover=”#22485C” button_border_color__hover_enabled=”on|desktop” button_border_color__hover=”#22485C” button_bg_color__hover_enabled=”on|desktop” button_bg_color__hover=”#FFFFFF” button_bg_enable_color__hover=”on” button_icon_color__hover_enabled=”on|desktop”][\/et_pb_button][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
