How AIMagnus Becomes An Agile Business

What will we remember from 2020? The health crisis caused by the coronavirus, of course, but also its heavy economic consequences. While many companies have had to go out of business, other agile companies have not only survived but have been able to adapt and reinvent themselves. Big names like Spotify, Apple and Netflix have innovated and inspired, living up to their reputation as agile companies. It is this same concept, promoting know-how, creativity and relevance, which is today at the heart of AIMagnus's projects,

Why Reorganize?

Since its launch in 2015, AIMagnus has established itself as a leading content provider. The platform has always shown flexibility to deliver quality texts and quickly adapt to market requirements. Of course, growing a business, regardless of its size, comes with a number of challenges. In a newly formed company, the role of each is often unclear and this problem only gets worse as the business grows. Sometimes duplicate tasks, waste of time, internal conflicts and a feeling of worthlessness for employees can result.

Why is change and especially reorganization useful?

Visualize the organization of a classic business. Traditionally, it is structured like a pyramid with a boss at the top and several categories of employees, all clearly hierarchical. This static organization undermines everyone's decision-making and creativity. It is a slow, even inefficient machine, where no one dares to take an initiative that could upset the established order, or propose a solution for improvement. In an agile company, on the contrary, the skills and expertise of each employee, whatever their status, are called upon to achieve a common goal. An agile company can build a stable foundation that enables it to adapt and evolve quickly and efficiently.

The structure of an agile company

The staff of an agile company is divided into small teams, each of which is involved and responsible for the management and development of the company:

- Tribes (or squads, squads...)

- Chapters

- Guilds

Chapters are at the heart of operations, each with a specific task to accomplish. They are fully autonomous. Together, they have the tools, skills and experience to complete a mission in its entirety. They are managed by one of the members, chosen for his expertise and not for any hierarchical position.

Tribes are made up of a set of chapters covering an area of ​​activity. Each tribal leader coordinates and provides a creative and stimulating environment for the tribe.

Guilds are chapters from several different tribes. They are chosen to focus on specific projects or developments. They meet regularly to share their ideas, which makes it possible to meet new challenges. The head of a guild is in charge of human resources and staff development issues.
