A holistic approach to driving business agility

Leaders are embracing new ways of thinking and working to reinvent at pace and scale, In this journey, business agility is key to achieving business results. Based on the 2020 CGI Client Global Insights, it is the third top business priority among the commercial executives we interviewed.

Further, of the 12% of executives whose organizations are achieving results with their enterprise digital strategies, 29% report having highly agile business models.

CGI research also shows that organizations that are highly agile across enterprise outperform their peers by a factor of 2-3 times in terms of revenue and profitable growth. The conclusion is clear: agile business practices drive results across the organization.
