Achieving Agile at scale requires attending to structure, management, systems, code quality and more. Approaches geared from a top up or kaizen only approach are doomed to fail because they don’t address inherent challenges of Agile at scale.

This webinar starts out by discussing these and describes why systems thinking and attending to flow.

Before we embark on a transition to Lean-Agile methods, we must understand the challenges inherent in effective software development of either products or IT software.

This session covers:

• Why our management methods work against our ability to develop software
• Our required mindset – lean-flow
• How to create visibility in our process and what we will discover
• Why pilots tend to work, but often take us further from Agile at scale
• Why a team based approach cannot solve an organization’s problem – time to move on from Scrum-of-Scrums
