Agile organizations are characterized as a network of teams operating in rapid learning and decision-making cycles. Traditional organizations place their governance bodies at their apex, and decision rights flow down the hierarchy.
In case of network of teams the focus of organization structure will shift from hierarchy management structures to networks and teams who work closer to the customer base, having more control over decision making. In case of agile organizations teams work towards accomplishment of a common purpose and use new data to give decision rights to the teams closest to the information. An agile organization can ideally combine velocity and adaptability with stability and efficiency. These teams are cross functional, mission based working towards driving business outcomes.
