Why do so many Agile transformations fail? Could it be that we begin with the mechanics over mindset? Many initiatives start by applying methods such as Scrum, SAFe, etc (aka, doing Agile). Often people don’t understand the “why” behind what they are doing (aka, being Agile), therefore leading to a lower likelihood of accepting and retaining change. Is there a better way?
Mario Moreira will guide you through the construction of your own Agile method by starting with the mindset and the “why” (aka, being Agile). You will collaborate with your colleagues in small groups and craft processes that align very closely with the Agile values and principles. You will create an Agile method that you can experiment with when you return to your company.
