The document discusses the application of agile/Scrum principles in a non-software organization. It describes starting with a "lone nut" pilot project to prove the concept. Key recommendations include focusing on people over process, using retrospectives to generate continuous improvements, and empowering flexibility as the "art of the possible." The presentation emphasizes small beginnings, listening to organizational narratives, and encouraging early adopters.

Catch them doing the
right things and focus
on the outcomes.

talking Scrum?
Take Two
Ensure that every
retrospective generates
one or two actionable
items to complete in the
next sprint.
Art of the possible
Empower the art of
the possible – it will
amaze you by
delivering profits, and
then some.
