According to the study conducted by the consultancy in cooperation with researchers from the University of Hamburg and Leuphana University, the thrust of these novel ways of working is essentially fed by five sources: agile product and service development, extensive use of Big Data analytics, predominantly digital interaction both within the workforce and with customers, an innovation-friendly organizational and leadership model, and a largely automated architecture and process landscape.<\/p>\n<p>Agile development methods shorten innovation cycles so that new solutions reach market maturity more quickly.<\/p>\n<h2>Basic condition: Digital Mindset<\/h2>\n<p>With advanced analytics technologies that incorporate data from a wide variety of provenances, digitally excellent companies are becoming increasingly successful in personalizing their services and tailoring them to the individual needs of each customer according to the situation.<\/p>\n<p>New insights into the behavior and needs of customers can be gained from their interaction with digital services via mobile devices, which can be used directly to improve the offering. However, a basic condition for this is end-to-end digital customer interaction, which - like the use of agile development methods - requires organizational changes and a digital mindset at the management level.<\/p>\n<p>Last but not least, data-driven agility requires a correspondingly agile IT environment as well as largely standardized and automated business processes.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3483\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3483\" style=\"width: 751px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Screenshot-2016-12-12-um-14.53.30-e1481551027174.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" title=\"Digital gene identified?\" class=\"wp-image-3483 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Screenshot-2016-12-12-um-14.53.30-e1481551027174.png\" alt=\"Performance Graph\" width=\"751\" height=\"461\" srcset=\"https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Screenshot-2016-12-12-um-14.53.30-e1481551027174.png 751w, https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Screenshot-2016-12-12-um-14.53.30-e1481551027174-100x61.png 100w, https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Screenshot-2016-12-12-um-14.53.30-e1481551027174-480x295.png 480w, https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Screenshot-2016-12-12-um-14.53.30-e1481551027174-640x393.png 640w, https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Screenshot-2016-12-12-um-14.53.30-e1481551027174-720x442.png 720w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 751px) 100vw, 751px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-3483\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Digital agility essentially feeds on five sources.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>\"Data-driven agility is no longer a monopoly of digital titans from Silicon Valley or young start-ups.
