Flight Levels. The brand-new Book. With Klaus Leopold & Sigi Kaltenecker

The Flight Levels Thinking Model has become a leading approach for enabling business agility.

We are more than excited hosting two of the Flight Levels pioneers for the launch of their book on the topic!

During this meetup Klaus Leopold, Flight Levels author and pioneer, and Sigi Kaltenecker will not only guide us through this approach, but will officially launch the English version of their brand-new book on Flight Levels.

As Klaus and Sigi, they will present their "latest state of error" regarding the practical application of Flight Levels:

• with a brief intro to the Flight Levels Model,
• they will show, how to professionally prepare improvement initiatives via Flight Levels,
• what to consider for the design of strategy and coordination systems as well as system architectures
• and how to design for day to day operations, so to not only take off via Flight Levels, but also land improvements continuously

🚀 During this Meetup Klaus and Sigi will not only provide a brief presentation, but also invite managers, agilists and also newcomers for interactive discussion of practical application.

About the Guests and Authors

Siegfried Kaltenecker is the managing partner of Loop GmbH, which specializes in agile organizational development. Since the 1990s, he has supported the implementation of innovative forms of work and organization in a wide variety of industries and acts as a pioneer of flight level coaching. He processes the experiences he collects in articles and books such as “Kanban in IT”, “Leading Self-Organized Teams”, “Self-Organized Companies”, “Tatort Kanban” and “Death to Management”.

Klaus Leopold is a computer scientist and, as a management consultant, has been helping companies around the world move agilely in the market for more than ten years. Klaus developed the flight levels model because he repeatedly observes a phenomenon in the practice of agile transformations: Teams are “agilized,” but these local optimizations do not add up to an agile business, even though that was a declared goal. In his book “Rethinking Agility,” he shows how to avoid this mistake right from the start and what ensures true agility when aligning an organization with the requirements of the market. In his early years in the Agile Community, Klaus dealt intensively with Kanban and wrote two standard works on this topic: “Kanban in Practice” and as co-author of “Kanban in IT”. Today, his focus is on using the Flight Levels model to provide a regulatory-free framework that organizations can use to find their individual path to greater business agility. He shares his thoughts, experiences and insights on the www.leanability.com blog and at @klausleopold on Twitter and LinkedIn.
