How do Flow Economics improve your organisation’s performance?
Flow as a concept has been around for many years, since Dan Reinertsen first documented the concept in The Principles of Product Development Flow in 2009, and many new thought leaders added to this methodology, such as Fin Goulding in Flow: A Handbook for Change Makers in 2017, Mik Kersten in Project to Product: How to Survive and Thrive in the Age of Digital Disruption with the Flow Framework in 2018, and more recently Steve Pereira in Flow Engineering: From Value Stream Mapping to Effective Action in 2024.
The Revolutionary Impact of Flow-based Delivery: Accelerating Value Through Optimised Systems
Flow Agile delivery has emerged as a transformative approach in product development and organisational management, demonstrating significant advantages over traditional methodologies. By focusing on continuous movement of value through systems, Flow Agile enables organisations to deliver faster, more effective results while maintaining sustainable practices.
