II: AGILITY FRAMEWORK
Being an agile organization requires senior leaders, middle managers, and agile team members to change the way that they organize their work, manage that work, and measure the results of the work.
Agile teams cannot do this on their own; they need help from the entire organization. Changes in the way that people think and work are required, driving improved results by having everyone's goals and ways of working aligned.
Excelsior would help attendees develop a deep understanding of the role that leaders play in creating the conditions for a successful agile environment. Leaders and managers are critical enablers in helping their organizations be successful, yet the role of leaders and managers in an agile organization can be quite different from what they are used to.
Excelsior uses a combination of instruction and team-based exercises to help participants learn how to form and support agile teams to achieve better results, and how to lead the cultural and behavioral changes that organizations must make to reap the benefits of an agile product delivery approach.

Why are company policies important?
Company policies put in writing what you expect from your employees. These may be related to performance, values or behavior. Additionally, company policies can serve as pre-warnings for employees, since they outline the consequences of failing to abide by the rules.
Company policies are important for a variety of other reasons, including:
- Setting expectations
- Keeping management accountable
- Ensuring compliance with the law
- Helping defend against legal claims
- Assisting with fair treatment of employees

Policies also help your employees know what is acceptable, and what is not tolerated. Plus, they reflect your company’s values, making it a better environment for all employees.
However, for your policies to be effective, they need to be comprehensive, inclusive, and well communicated. When you don’t implement them in the right way and take into account all aspects of the employee experience, you put your organization at risk.
