Business agility is one of the key differentiators in today's market — indeed, a company's future-centricity may soon become the sole differentiator as markets and customers adopt new ways of doing business. Constant change is essential to business success, and it begins with people. Business and HR leaders must work to overcome employees' natural change-aversion and instill a culture of change from the grass roots up. Change initiatives require engagement and motivation, and this is built on alignment and leadership — alignment from top to bottom ensures that employees have a line of sight from their own work processes to the overall success of the company, and leadership ties every change to the company's broader vision and to each individual's personal growth. HR is an essential part of this process: HR leaders are the company's guide to the people issues that make the difference between stagnation and a truly agile business organization.
