Instead of "doing" more Agile transformations and expecting to see different outcomes, get out of the hamster wheel and allow yourself for a deeper reflection. This reflection of mine on the Obstacles of Agile adoption and Aspiration for 2020s is an invitation to Inspect & Adapt the dacade of 2010s, build on it and move forward in 2020s.For quite some time now I have been having second thoughts on what stops Agile from being fully adopted in a long term sustainable manner. What are these invisible forces causing the issues with Agile adoption? And what is possible if we eliminate those? Enjoy my latest webcast on nature and roots of obstacles to Agile adoptions at the dawn of 2020s. This is to inspire you, encourage you to reflect too, and join the wider discussion within the#agile2020shashtag. https://lnkd.in/enPJxAq #transformation#futureofwork#leadership
A common understanding of enterprise agility these days leads to horizontal transformations: applying Agile concepts in orange environments, to achieve orange goals. The mandate of "top teams" still anchors them in the orange frame of maximizing Return of Invested Capital and as such limits opportunities to use Agile as it was designed. That dichotomy builds even more friction into the system, dis-empowering employees even more. This is why we observe so much of "fake" agility, a.k.a. The Cargo Cult, and this is why companies "cannot realize the value of agile transformations" as I heard multiple times. To achieve a sustainable change the goals of Agile transformations need to be rooted in the green or teal perspective.
I think this short video will inevitably become what the Kniberg's "Spotify engineering culture" became in 2010s - a cornerstone for popularizing the concept of vertical evolution of the world. Thank you Peter Green!
