Especially if you are confronted with one of the following problems & challenges:

• Your company strives for business agility, but you cannot go beyond the limits of the organizational structure. The Flight Levels model helps with this initial situation since it starts with the value-generating processes and connects the individual work systems to form a meaningful architecture — as shown in chapter 5 on "Flight Levels System Architecture (FLSA)"

• Your company is already agile in individual business areas but is failing to scale successfully. In this context, too, a flight levels architecture can be of good service since it creates an overview of the systemic relationships, dependencies, and coordination points without which effective scaling cannot succeed — as also shown in chapter 5 on "Flight Levels System Architecture (FLSA)“).

  Although the board sets clear strategic goals, at the end of the year, it turns out that your organization was largely occupied with completely different things. In such a case, your company could benefit if the goals are linked to measurable results and specific initiatives; a transparent system is created for this and regularly inspected and adapted — as shown in chapter 4 on "Flight Level 3 Design (FL3D)"

• All business areas in your company are working on several promising projects, but progress is much slower than expected. This situation calls for a differentiated visualization of the current work situation so that you can get an overview of the various projects and focus on them in a meaningful way — as shown in chapter 3 on "Flight Level 2 Design (FL2D)“ & chapter 4 on "Flight Level 3 Design (FL3D)"

• There are many agile teams in action but realize neither faster delivery nor more value for your company. In such a situation, Flight Levels can help by focusing on end-to-end value streams and ensuring goal-oriented coordination of agile and non-agile islands - as shown in chapter 3 on "Flight Level 2 Design (FL2D)“

  The specialist departments in your company work very productively but do not know the bigger picture their work contributes to. This gap can also be bridged by using a strategy board: It creates a system that is transparent for everyone if there is also regular interaction - as shown in chapter 4 on "Flight Level 3 Design (FL3D)"

• Some agile frameworks have already been tried in your organization, but it has always failed to implement the specified organizational standards, roles, and interactions in the company as planned. If so, it might be worth taking a closer look at the agile change approach of Flight Levels — - as shown in chapter 2 on "Flight Levels Preparation"
