Agile mindset

a workshop to explore how our mindset affect the way we lead our life and the mindset required for any successful agile transformation

This document discusses a holistic approach to agile transformation that focuses on four key areas: environments and systems, practices and roles, mindset, and culture. It emphasizes that true transformation requires changes across all of these areas, including updating organizational structures and strategies, roles, individual mindsets, and shifting organizational culture. Barriers to agile adoption are also examined, such as culture, lack of buy-in, and traditional mindsets. An integral approach is recommended to drive comprehensive and lasting change throughout the organization.

The document provides an introduction to the Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe). It discusses that SAFe was developed to help agile scale for large organizations as traditional structures do not support innovation, speed and agility at scale. SAFe combines agile with systems thinking and lean product development. The core of SAFe is the Program level which revolves around Agile Release Trains (ARTs) consisting of cross-functional self-organizing teams that deliver working solutions every 2 weeks through planning events.

This document discusses the Essential SAFe framework for scaling agile. It introduces the 10 essential SAFe patterns that should be focused on, which are: Lean-Agile Principles, Real Agile Teams and Trains, Cadence and Synchronization, PI Planning, DevOps and Releasability, System Demo, IP Iteration, Architectural Runway, Lean-Agile Leadership, and Inspect & Adapt. Each element is then explained in more detail over several slides. The document concludes by providing ways Essential SAFe can be used and asking if there are any questions.

The document provides an introduction to agile methods for executives. It discusses how agile approaches can help organizations adapt to increasingly volatile business environments.

The document outlines agile concepts like iterative development, minimal viable products, continuous delivery and focus on customer value. It also summarizes common agile frameworks like Scrum and how agility can be scaled in large organizations.

This document outlines an agile evolution lifecycle consisting of adoption, adjustment, and advancement. It discusses scaling challenges with initial agile adoption within teams and a lack of visibility outside teams. The adjustment phase emphasizes focusing on small, well-defined user stories and taking responsibility for deliveries. Advancement challenges working agile in organizations needing roadmaps for customers and discusses prioritizing features by business value and cost to fit within scope. The final culture stage involves organizational unity across functions, adapting approaches, and focusing on short cycles of gradual value to keep customers happy.

Learn the basics of the agile way-of-life that has helped many companies realize their potential in the market. The agile secret sauce was once a thing that was only enjoyed by software organizations on the East and West coasts, but is now invading Indianapolis -- increasing productivity, making teams empowered (and happier!), and helping managers focus less on the taskmaster role and more on the important stuff.

Leading a large-scale agile transformation isn’t about adopting a new set of attitudes, processes, and behaviors at the team level… it’s about helping your company deliver faster to market, and developing the ability to respond to a rapidly-changing competitive landscape. First and foremost, it’s about achieving business agility. Business agility comes from people having clarity of purpose, a willingness to be held accountable, and the ability to achieve measurable outcomes. Unfortunately, almost everything in modern organizations gets in the way of teams acting with any sort of autonomy. In most companies, achieving business agility requires significant organizational change. Join @Mike Cottmeyer live from #Agile2017 during this workshop.

Learn more about the scaled Agile Framework + scaling Agile. After a short introduction to several frameworks that aim to support the scaling of Agile (DAD, LeSS, SAFe®), this power point presentation from our webinar dives deeper into the details of the Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe®). Find the truth behind the often cited sentence “As Scrum is to the Agile team, SAFe® is to the Agile enterprise.”
