Agile Transformation and Agile frameworks implementation
Transforming an entire company into a true Agile framework has its rules and process. There is a big difference in “doing” Agile and “being” Agile where the latter is a paradigm change. It cannot and should not be rushed as it involves changing people´s behavior. Shaping the company culture is essential. Otherwise it is just another technical implementation, another missed opportunity and yet another talent waste.
Implementing Agile Processes, Practices & Values
- designing, implementing, developing and promoting Agile methodologies, principles, values and practices across all levels and departments in an organization
- ensuring that Agile practices are consistently used throughout the organization
- enabling teams to operate in a collaborative and integrative way
Teaching & Training
- coaching, mentoring and educating employees at all levels on Agile principles and frameworks
- providing or organizing training about JIRA, Confluence, Trello, agile collaboration tools (Jamboard, Mural, Miro, Lucidspark, etc.)
Company Culture shift and shaping. Innovation, collaboration
Agile Transformation means culture change or improvement. The 1st bullet of Agile Manifesto says “People and Interactions over Processes and Tools” and there is a lot of truth in it. Strong team sits at the heart of an Agile company and such team needs to be built with Team Building & Cohesion, Feedback Culture, Psychological Safety, New ways of working, etc…)
- encouraging a culture of continuous improvement and innovation throughout the organization
- developing new techniques that increase collaboration, predictability, transparency, and promote a culture of experimentation and innovation
- driving cultural change by championing and promoting Agile mindset, self-organization, empirical control processing, Agile manifesto, etc.
Organization Support
Organizational agility is critical to respond sufficiently to challenges. Unfortunately, most businesses’ organizational structures, processes, and cultures were developed more than a century ago. They were built for control and stability, not innovation, speed, and agility. Small incremental changes to how businesses manage, strategize, and execute are insufficient to remain competitive. This requires a leaner and more Agile approach which, in turn, requires sweeping changes that have a positive, long-lasting impact on the entire enterprise.

Team support and individual coaching
As said, Team sits at the heart of an Agile company. Yet, a team consists from a number of diverse and unique individuals with distinct perspectives, motivation, skills, capablilities and social backgrounds. It is imperative the team as welll as individuals receive high-caliber coaching & support so that they can shine, grow and deliver value to customers. Recognition plays a vital role here.
