You want to launch Agile teams quickly and smartly. Is that realistic or popular talk? Discover the answer to that question with our new “Agile Kickstart Canvas. A practical format with a selection of valuable insights from years of coaching and training Agile teams and transitions. Read on, we’ll immediately tackle two big misunderstandings about Agile transitions. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n

How many Agile books do you have on your shelf? There are hundreds. The Internet is also bulging with Agile blogs. And to be honest: we too like to share our knowledge. However, it could just be that all this content causes misunderstandings within your organization or team. Let’s cross out two of those misunderstandings. <\/p>\n\n

Two transition misconceptions<\/strong> <\/h2>\n\n

1. Transforming your organization overnight <\/em>into an Agile system? It’s perfectly doable. <\/strong><\/h4>\n\n

Buzzer! In an Agile transition, you reinvent yourself (as an organization) from the bottom up. The transition touches everything in the organization. Throw a stone in the water and the circles reach further and further. It often starts with a specific team, then departments such as HR and Legal get involved, and then management gets acquainted with Agile teams as well. Transform. <\/p>\n\n

Many organizations are at a dead end. With sometimes conflicting interests. So everything has to come back into alignment. Does that take a long time? With Agile coaching, at least shorter than it took to get everything disconnected. But drastic it is. For some organizations, the decoupling started in the 1970s. So you don’t solve that overnight<\/em>. <\/p>\n\n

2. There is a roadmap that shows with milestones<\/em> when you reach which stage of Agile.<\/strong><\/strong><\/h4>\n\n

False! A transition is not a linear process. It is a process where you start and explore step-by-step what your next step will be. What delivers the greatest value? What is most needed right now? At the same time, transition is by no means a license to “just do anything. It is a delicate process of super-sharp prioritization and continually deploying the right concrete actions accordingly. So: <\/p>\n\n

  • be continuously sharp;<\/li>
  • dare to let go;<\/li>
  • but also confront;<\/li>
  • accelerate;<\/li>
  • occasionally hit the brakes.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n

    <\/p>\n\n

    Working with milestones<\/em> would mean that transformation is predictable. A transformation is super complex and therefore not predictable. <\/p>\n\n

    Can you identify with these principles? Then you are ready to start your Agile journey. The Agile Kickstart Canvas gives you concrete tools to shape your transformation hands-on. Downloading it is your first step. <\/p>\n\n
