Agile Transformation
Confidently take your next steps with customer-centric design, proven collaboration methods, iterative delivery, and continuous improvement
Driver
“Going agile” can seem daunting, and it can feel like there are more cautionary tales than success stories. And shifting to agile mindsets and methods is a big change for any organization. That’s why we recommend a targeted approach (we’re big fans of piloting agile methods within a small, well-established team), taking a long-term view and focusing as much on your organizational design as on your software development methodologies.
If you’ve been thinking about adopting agile methodologies within your organization, we can help. We’ve been a part of many waterfall and agile efforts, and we’ve helped clients take steps in benefiting from iterative, customer-centric approaches.
Outcome
Align on an actionable, custom-built plan to incorporate agile methodologies into your organization. Engage more productively with internal and external stakeholders as you focus on customer-centric design, iterative delivery, and continuous improvement.
Approach
The shift from waterfall to agile approaches is as much about building a culture of creativity and courage as it is about sprints and user stories. So we’ll start by understanding what you’re after, what capabilities you already have in house, and help you take next steps in your agile journey.
We will:
Get clear on what success looks like, no matter how it was delivered. What are you aiming for? What do your customers need and want?
Understand what’s prompting the desire for agile. Do you want faster results, better alignment of stakeholders, and/or better employee experience? Do you have team members clamoring to work using agile methods?
Understand your company culture, standard processes, and the frameworks and methodologies that drive progress
Learn about your employees’ experience working in an agile manner — you may have the perfect agile evangelist already in your midst! — and how they feel about the company’s ways of working
Create a phased roadmap for introducing agile mindsets and methods through your organization, harnessing key agile concepts like retrospectives to incorporate lessons learned early and often, and keep getting closer and closer to our desired outcomes
