Agile Adoption and the Benefits of Agile Transformation
By Roy Schilling
Abstract
Agile transformations can be expensive – very expensive – and will cause significant disruption to an organization. So, you have to ask, why would companies want to do this?
While there are many benefits to going to Agile, organizations often choose the wrong goals, or don’t go far enough to realize those benefits, usually failing (at some level) or at least becoming disillusioned and falling back on familiar methods. And is it really about “doing agile?” or is it more about agility and improved flexibility?
