The business world is full of contradictions. On one hand, everyone’s hungry for the next big thing. On the other, the thought of taking risks makes leaders sweat. Even though nearly all of them agree that companies have to innovate — 98%, to be exact — it’s not that simple.

In today’s rapidly evolving business landscape, the imperative for innovation has never been more clear. Leaders across industries understand that the key to relevance and sustainability lies in continuous adaptation and evolution. In fact, Miro’s global innovation survey reveals that nearly all enterprise leaders believe a company will become extinct if it fails to innovate — so the clock is ticking.

A company is like a living organism. Employees come and go, teams reorganize, and workflows change. To visualize your organizational structure as it evolves, it’s useful to have a living document like an organizational chart. Beyond tracking your employee structure at a glance, an org chart helps to train new hires, document processes, and allocate resources. If you think org charts are all the same, think again.

To stay competitive, enterprise organizations need to set clear goals, define strategies, and allocate the right resources to drive the actions needed to achieve objectives. This all requires organizational planning. If you’re a business leader, this also means optimizing your organization’s structure. Doing so will help you identify redundancies across teams, and skill sets.

Agile methodologies — techniques and practices that prioritize collaboration and flexibility — have long been a reliable fixture on most product teams who want to deliver value while still having the flexibility to adapt to changes. But as technological advancements, regulatory shifts, distributed teamwork, and rising customer expectations make projects increasingly complex, even Agile methodologies can feel too rigid and one-size-fits-all.
