Many successful companies are

NOT Agile

so, where are the Agile Hyper-Productive companies?

“They promised me Mars

Colonies... Instead, I got Facebook!”

Where’s the “Agile Machine that changed the world”?

SHOW ME THE MONEY!!

In fact, many are already leaving the Agile Ship

Challenge: The Agile ENTERPRISE

How can we make the whole Enterprise AGILE?

Agile Fluency

You are here (with any luck)

Agile Fluency

This is the challenge!

As people love lists, let me give you

FIVE TIPS

to improve Enterprise Agility(sorry, no recipes!)

Tip #1 : “Concept to Cash”

Global Vision

Optimize the Value Stream

Eliminate Bottlenecks

Don’t SuboptimizeSelected Backlog

Code Test Done!

Design

Rdy Rdy On On

Get Rid of Silos

Flatten Hierarchy

Reduce the Lead Time - a.k.a. “Time To Market”

Sooo... It’s all about productivity???

Tip #2 : First “what/why”, then “when/how”

“Double the crap, double fast”

Understand Value

BTW: This is NOT value...

‘What You Measure is What You Get’

Stop thinking “Requirements”

Think Customer/Problem/Solution

Real Customer Collaboration!

Which sometimes means...

Tip #3 :“Culture Change”

In many places, Agile is a CULT

Agile should be a CULTURE

Corporate-Wide Agile Values

Collaboration

Self Organization

ResponsibilityAccountability

Respect

TrustLong Term Improvement

QualityExcellence

ChangeTeamwork

Transparency

Courage

See the whole

Leadership

Motivation

Cross-Functional

Communication

Interaction Flow

Challenge Learn

Values are what we VALUE

Corporate-Wide Agile Artifacts

Corporate-Wide Agile Purpose

Culture is everyone

1962!!

Tip #4 :Understand Agile

Agile is not “Conformance to the process”

BURN-DOWN STAND UPS Planning Game

Pair Programming

STICKY NOTES Scrum Master

Avatars WIP limits

Kanban

Foam Toys

Story Points Scrum Of Scrums

Continuous Build Agile Coach Retrospective

Impediments

Clean Code

Happiness Index

“Just Conformance” can lead to

Demotivated Teams Resistance to Change

Cargo Cult Low productivity

Lack of business alignment

Long lead times

Fear of Agile

Lack of Skills

No clear results No ability to scale “Bad” Self Organization

No coordination

Scattered Knowledge

Wrong Products

If you are ‘Polysimptomatic’, chances are

Instead, try to understand Agility

True Agile is about

DELIVERY

True Agile is about

LEARNING

True Agile is about

ADAPTING

True Agile is about

IMPROVING

True Agile is about

KICKIN’ ASS ;)

Tip #5 :Make it a matter of...

Survival!

There Are New Species Arriving

And Changes in Environment

Faster Product Cycles

Globalization

It’s not a matter of how big or powerful you are...

Deceased!

Survival is a matter of adaptation

So stop

Understand

Agile is important to you

And embrace

Uncover Better Ways of Delivering Great Products, then

DO IT and help others

In other words...

It’s HA time!
