A successful agile culture hinges on having teams of motivated, inspired, and productive individuals. Innovative businesses today are fueled by the individuals who believe in their purpose, are given the freedom they need to experiment, take calculated risks, and work creatively in order to move things forward.

Hear insights from Missy Lawrence-Johnston, Principal Consultant at ISG, previously presented at the 2020 Agile Enterprise Summit.
