Beliminal’s Approach to Enterprise Agility
Enterprise Agility is NOT a framework; it’s a transformative philosophy grounded in two pillars, supported by eight principles:
Continuous Participatory Change – A collaborative process that empowers everyone within the organisation to take part in reshaping how they work.
Organisational Design – A people-centred set of patterns that focuses on creating an environment optimised for value delivery.
Change needs to change
In a time of constant change and increasing complexity, traditional models of scaled agility often fall short.
The focus is often limited to creating agile teams rather than focusing on the entire value system.
It is often about implementing a framework rather than solving real business problems.
The change is often driven top-down and rolled out by management, creating resistance rather than engagement.
Through these guiding principles, Beliminal enables organisations to move beyond static structures and engage in a living, evolving system of change.
The Enterprise Agility Wheel: A Lens for Transformation
At the heart of our approach is the Enterprise Agility Wheel, a comprehensive tool designed to reveal both visible and hidden dynamics within your organisation. This tool allows leaders to identify key tensions— where the current reality diverges from the desired reality.
With Beliminal’s guidance, the Enterprise Agility Wheel helps you prioritise and navigate these tensions, providing actionable insights and enabling you to develop an adaptive, responsive organisation.
Take our Enterprise Agility Survey to identify your organisational tensions, and we will send you some insight about opportunities for experimentation in your organisation.
Patterns of Enterprise Agility: Practical Solutions for Lasting Change
Beliminal’s Patterns of Enterprise Agility provide the practical strategies needed to address the real challenges of change. Organised into different aspects of organisational design, each pattern can be adapted into an experiment to create forward momentum, foster innovation, and streamline operations across key areas:
People Advocacy
How we unleash potential. Helping people be the best that they can be. By nurturing their growth and making sure people have the opportunities to contribute actively to the organisation’s purpose.
People Well-being
How we nurture people. Putting people at the front and centre of the organisation and focusing on their well-being naturally improves their contribution and motivation.
Execution
How we get stuff done. Execution in the context of Enterprise Agility refers to how an organisation delivers value efficiently and effectively.
Structure
How people organise to get the work done, the teams created, how people join them and who decides.
Customer Value
Customers are at the heart of why we exist and should love the value we deliver.
Purpose
Building a clear, motivating purpose that aligns every action with the organisation’s larger goals, fostering a culture of purpose-driven work.
Governance
Creating adaptive, transparent systems of decision-making that empower individuals while maintaining alignment with strategic objectives.
Adaptation
Change needs to change. The traditional approach, where change is designed up-front by managers and consultants and then rolled out across the organisation, rarely works and creates a lot of resistance. You also can’t change a bureaucracy with a bureaucratic approach. A new agile way of change is needed.
Turning Tensions into Catalysts for Growth
In most organisations, change is episodic, driven by top-down mandates that often meet with resistance and falter. Beliminal’s approach is different: we see tensions—the gaps between current and desired states—as powerful catalysts for growth. By embracing these tensions, your organisation can transform friction into opportunities for learning and adaptation, moving forward with confidence and purpose.
Our approach to navigating tensions ensures that transformation is participatory and sustainable, involving people at all levels and aligning every change with a shared organisational purpose.
