Abstract:

Agile has arrived, but the higher education sector has yet to realize its value. The time is now for higher
education to adjust operational practices to respond to change and evolving customer needs. In adopting Agile and customizing the approach for our unique working environment, we have been able to promote organizational effectiveness by clear prioritization, shared purpose, organizational alignment and synchronization. Adopting an Agile mindset and introducing easy frameworks to enhance workflow contributed to an increase of efficiency and effectiveness. An opportunity lies ahead for Agile to scale across higher education and NC State University is leading the charge.
