The document outlines a stepwise approach to implementing Agile/DSDM processes in an organization. It recommends starting with the foundations like PRINCE2 project management. The next steps involve gradually introducing more Agile elements: user involvement, shorter iterative projects, quality processes, and training. The goal is to eventually make Agile/DSDM processes a natural part of the organizational culture. It cautions not to oversell Agile and to go at the pace that is right for each organization.

Editor's Notes
- Next products… Just run through slide
- Ask audience experiences of Agile Myths - 5 minutes
- 5 minutes But surely offshore development makes life easy Experiment on stage All we have to do is: Say WHAT we want Choose WHO will do it for us Hand it over to them And we get what we wanted! We introduce complexity at the start We do not communicate and therefore iterate / feedback Small assumptions lead to chaos Then we get the wrong answer
- 5 minutes Agile 10 years old DSDM since 94 Real message is iterate/feedback from simplicity to create correct answer SCRUM; LEAN; KANBAN; DSDM
- 1. Explain Lifecycle and iteration 2. Explain Processes
- Explain Project; solution; other Explain that it can easily scale (whiteboard how) Explain empowerment and letting the team get on with things - self organising within boundaries Page: 37
