Agile Management to Agile Collaboration in the Nonprofit Sector: Cases During the COVID-19 Pandemic

Jiwon Suh,제니퍼 라이너,김정욱 (재) 인천연구원 2023 도시연구 Vol.- No.24

The concept of agility refers to the rapidity with which nonprofit and public organizations respond to social problems. Using a case-study approach, we find several cases wherein nonprofit organizations exhibited agility in their response to the pandemic by quickly transitioning their services and adapting to collective action. However, this study also finds that nonprofit organizations still face inflexibility and limitations from government procedures that hinder their agility. Based on these findings, we propose three categories of agile management and collaboration based on South Korea’s experience during the first large-scalewave of the COVID-19 pandemic. The three categories are: 1) entrepreneurial service provision and flexible implementation, 2) procedural simplicity, and 3)adaptive structure in collective actions.

중견/중소 IT기업의 사업 수행 기회 증대, 기회 균등과 역량 강화라는 취지로 소프트웨어(SW)산업진흥법 개정으로 공공정보화시장에 대기업 참여를 제한되었다. 이러한 환경에서의 중견/중소 SW기업들의 사업을 수행하면서 발생한 사업 수행 역량 미흡으로 공공정보화사업의 품질저하, 위험관리 미숙, 일정관리 저하 등 여러 문제점을 발생시키고 있다. 이를 해결하기 위해 본 논문은 시스템통합 사업 수행 시 품질 저하 요인을 도출하였으며, 이를 해결하기 위한 방안으로 VISUALIZATION, 엄격한 시험관리, Agile방법론의 일부 활동을 적용하여 프로젝트를 수행하는 것을 제안했다. 이러한 방안을 중견/중소 IT기업이 개발한 보건의료 IT 프로젝트에 적용한 결과 의사소통의 개선, 수치화된 진척 관리 및 프로젝트의 가시성이 개선되었다. 또한, 결함 해결시간 최소화, 요구사항 커리리지 비율 개선, 불필요한 회의시간이 단축이 되어 품질 향상에 기여하였습니다. This paper limited the participation of large corporations in the mass information market by revising the Software Industry Promotion Act in order to increase business opportunity, equality of opportunity, and capacity building for small and medium sized IT companies. However, it is a fact that the medium and small SW companies have insufficient business capacity and expose various problems such as quality degradation of public information business, inadequate risk management, and deterioration of schedule management. In order to solve this problem, this paper derived the factors of quality deterioration in the system integration project and proposed to carry out the project by using some activities of VISUALIZATION, rigorous test management and Agile Methodology as a solution. Applying these measures to healthcare IT projects developed by midsize / small-sized IT companies has improved communications, improved quantitative progress management and improved project visibility. In addition, it contributed to minimizing defect resolution time, improving the requirement coverage ratio, and shortening unnecessary meeting time.

최순원(Choi, Soon-won) 한국문화융합학회 2021 문화와 융합 Vol.43 No.4

이 연구의 목적은 조직민첩성이 육군 간부의 학습민첩성에 미치는 영향과 긍정적 실책관리문화의 조절효과를 확인하는 데 있다. 2020년 육군에 복무하는 5년차 이상의 간부 425명을 대상으로 연구한 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째 조직민첩성의 하위요인인 신속성, 유연성, 정보체계는 육군간부의 학습민첩성에 정적인 영향을 주었다. 둘째, 이때 긍정적 실책관리문화는 정보체계와 학습민첩성의 관계에서만 유의했다. 이 결과를 통해 나타난 시사점은 첫째, 조직민첩성은 육군 간부의개인학습민첩성에 정적인 영향을 주기 때문에 온나라시스템 등 외부정보를 유통하는 체계를 구비및 유지해야 한다. 두 번째, 학습민첩성은 조직 정보체계와 혁신행동의 관계를 완전매개하는만큼학습민첩성의 중요성을 인지하고 적극적으로 도입하여야 한다. 세 번째, 상·원사 계층에 한하여조직신속성과 정보체계가 학습민첩성에 미치는 영향을 조절하는바, 육군은 실책을 긍정적으로관리하는 문화를 가진 “열린 육군(Open Army)”의 형태가 되어야 할 것이다. This study aims to confirm the relationship of organizational agility, learning agility, innovative behavior of army officers and the moderating effect of positive error management climate on the learning agility . A total of 425 officers with more than five years serving in the army in 2020 participated in a survey. The results found, first, that the sub-factors of organizational agility, such as promptness, flexibility, and information system, had a positive effect on the learning agility of the officers; and second, learning agility had a positive effect on the innovative behavior; third learning agility had mediating effect on organizational agility and innovative behavior,; and forth, that a positive error management climate was found to have effects only in the relationship between the information system and learning agility. Moreover, the results suggest the following: First, considering the positive effect of organizational agility on the individual learning agility of army officers, a national system for distributing external information should be established and maintained. Second, as learning agility completely mediates the relationship between organizational information system and innovation behavior, it is necessary to recognize the importance of learning agility and actively introduce it Introduced in order to develop into the capabilities of future army officers. Third, the impact of organizational rapidity and information systems on learning agility is controlled only at the upper and lower levels, and the army should encourage an “open army” with a climate of positively managing mistakes.

SURVIVAL OF THE QUICKEST – INVESTIGATING ORGANIZATIONAL AGILITY ENABLERS AND OUTCOMES

Fabian P.W. Schrempf,Manfred Schwaiger 글로벌지식마케팅경영학회 2018 Global Marketing Conference Vol.2018 No.07

Organizational agility is a firm-wide dynamic capability to cope with rapid, relentless, and uncertain changes and thrive in a competitive environment of continually and unpredictable changing opportunities. A conceptual model is drawn up, based on the literature and a previous qualitative inquiry, to identify agility enablers that help organizations to sustain in dynamic environments. Further, the model explores the relationship between organizational agility and firm performance as well as the moderating effect of environmental dynamism on this relationship. The validity of the construct is assessed by means of a quantitative study using a survey methodology. A data set consisting of 348 German-based companies is analysed on a business unit level as well as for the organization as a whole. Partial least squares path modeling (PLS-SEM) results reveal that four dimensions (organization, innovation, people and knowledge management), comprising various agility enablers, positively influence organizational agility. Moreover, results indicate that organizational agility has a significant effect on firm performance and that this relationship is modearted by environmental dynamism. Therefore, this study contributes to a better understanding of the complex nature of the agility construct and provides guidelines how organizations can achieve an agile alignment. It further emphasizes the need for managers to integrate agile practices in order to outperform competitors in hypercompetitive and turbulent business environments.

장활식 ( Hwal Sik Chang ),김재정 ( Chae Jeong Kim ) 한국정보시스템학회 2012 情報시스템硏究 Vol.21 No.3

Supply chain management(SCM) helps firms in integrating their business by collaborating with other value chain partners to meet the unpredictable demand of the end user. Agility is the fundamental characteristic of a supply chain needed for survival in turbulent and volatile markets, which are becoming norms as product life cycles shorten and environmental forces create additional uncertainty resulting in higher risk in the supply chain management. Literature reviews reveals various factors that could affect the agility. The objective of this study is to derive interdependence, partnership, quality of information, joint problem solving, modelize the mutual influential relationship between them, and look into the influential relationship influencing the agility. To test the proposed model, we used a data set generated from survey. Date analysis was conducted using 122 respondents. We used structural equation model (SEM) implemented in partial least square(PLS). The results of this study can be summarized as follows. Interdependence had a significant impact on partnership. Partnership had a significant impact on quality of information and joint problem solving. Quality of information had a significant impact on joint problem solving. Quality of information and joint problem solving had a significant impact on agility. This study diagnoses that Inter-organizational relationship characteristics are important for supply chain agility. Inter-organizational relationship characteristics are considered as an essential factor for supply chain agility.
