AGILE TRANSFORMATION
Have you experienced any of this?
- More and more organizations are embracing Agile practices to compete in the current market environment. Many of these organizations rely on “trusted” consulting providers that claim to have expert Agile coaches or consultants.
- The expectation is that a trustworthy organization will send qualified professionals who will rapidly implement Agile with almost no effort from the client. But the reality is that many consulting firms care mostly about selling consulting hours—and the client will certainly get a lot of those.
- Furthermore, the lack of specialization and dedicated Agile expertise often lead to vendors shopping around for inexpensive and inexperienced entry-level-certified Agile practitioners, who will work for years without any noticeable results.
- This leads to frustration for the client and its customers, as well as long-term dependency on vendors.
Our commitment
- We specialize in building Agile organizations, and our founder has been 100% dedicated to Agile since 2006.
- You work at your own pace as we help you achieve visible results for your organization and your customers. As the implementation progresses, your focus shifts from providing guidance to building autonomy, so that you can take full ownership of your Agile transformation—in record time.
Experience the difference
- Working with us is a unique transformational experience that enables you to develop the capabilities you need for a constantly changing business environment.
- You will install the mindset and skills in others to sustain a long-lasting change in your company. The leadership skills acquired among your employees will apply both to your Agile transformation and all future endeavors.
Agile transformation driven by your own leaders
- We develop a deep understanding of Agile, leadership, and social systems within your organization to boost agility and sustain change.
- Our trainers and coaches provide training, guidance, coaching, and support both online and in person.
- We start by setting a vision with our client, analyzing the context, building internal transformation teams, and defining an overall strategy.
- The defined strategy will entail no more than four three-month-long blocks, with targets and goals to be achieved by a series of short iterations. In each improvement block, we help the client to analyze the current situation, set goals, achieve those goals, measure results, learn from the process, and take action.
- Each three-month-long block will be divided in a series of improvement iterations. During each of this iterations, we train, guide, coach, and mentor the transformational teams so that they can deliver on expectations.
- Scalability: Each transformational team can have up to 15 members and work with up to 50 teams. We can scale up to four transformation teams in the same organization during one year.

Possible questions from the customer
Yes, your commitment is nonnegotiable, but you can decide how much of our support you are ready to hire.
- Setting a vision and a scope of your transformation
- Analyzing the context (structure, culture, processes, and leadership)
- Building internal transformation teams
- Defining overall strategy
- Running four transformation blocks (three months each)
- Analyze the current situation

- Measure results
- Learn from the process
- Plan future actions
In our experience, those are lack of commitment, unskilled support, unclear goals or expectations, neglecting the cultural factor and focusing only on process changes, and blaming traditional approaches and initiatives.
Our approach is based on leadership development and cultural change to enable Agile processes and practices. For that, we use mainly Scrum, Scaled Scrum, LeSS, Kanban, Lean, and other approaches for professional coaching, systems coaching, and human development.
Experience tells us that organizations need involvement, sponsorship, and commitment from the highest senior management in the target area for the transformation. The involvement of this person is particularly important when defining the transformation vision, goals, and results review.
Even though a true digital transformation should involve the whole organization, it’s possible to start in any department and then progressively expand to the others.
The Problem with Coaching Agile Teams
In today’s world, many organizations are gradually shifting towards Agile-oriented operations and practices in order to have a competitive advantage. As such, they begin to search for professionals who have some form of experience in coaching Agile teams.
Unfortunately, in a bid to find a seasoned Agile transformation coach, they often end up with inexperienced entry-level practitioners who are only concerned with selling hours. Consequently, this leads to dissatisfaction and frustration on the part of the client organization.
