Intent: Identifying change drivers in organizations
Solution: informal networks
• Where are these change drivers located?
• Unseen. Often felt
• Dynamic
Ever struck by whispering walls?
4
• Whom do I…?
• How do I…?
• And importantly
• WHY do I…?
Identifying change drivers in networks
I am because of my relationships

Let’s practise Net-Map
Paper-pen based tool for participatory mapping
What is your compelling question ?
What problems are you trying to solve ?
Questions change your perception.

Let’s practise Net-Map
What is your compelling question?
Questioning is the key:
Internal change agents: Who influences Scrum
adoption in my organization?
External change agents: What is my entry point?
12
Group processes:
Stimulating conversations in any setting
• Stakeholder participation – revolving around
the compelling question
• Making knowledge explicit – qualitative
conversations are the heart of the method
13
Who is involved?
14
How are they linked?
15
What are their goals?
16
How influential are they?
17
Group discussions
Explicit. Visible.
18
A product manager and his informal networks
19
Intelligence lies in the subtle
acknowledgements we make.
Sometimes all it requires is a deep
breath, a gentle nod and one firm first
step
Questions?
