Expanding Operations Through Agile Principles and Sustainable Practices explores the intersection between agility, sustainability, and business resilience. It delves into how businesses can effectively integrate agile principles and sustainable practices to expand their operations while enhancing their resilience in the face of challenges and uncertainties.
