This document describes one organization's journey with adopting an agile mindset and methodology. They received feedback that their approach was "not agile", but found an approach that worked for their culture and values. Through trials, feedback, conferences and retrospectives, the organization was able to continuously learn, improve and adapt their agile practices until they were ready to go live in production successfully.
