Why Agile Transformations Fail (and what you can do about it)Andrea Provaglio
I've learned by direct and indirect experience, in over 15 years of professional activity in the Agile field, that so called Agile "transformations" which really meet their expectations (or, even better, exceeds them) are quite few.
In too many instances the benefits are minimal, totally absent or indeed negative.
This presentation intends to acknowledge, constructively, this elephant in the room and to offer insights, personal experiences and suggestions to anyone willing to enhance the Business Agility of their organization.
We'll take a look at some common misunderstanding concerning the organizational and cultural transition to Agility (I don't really like the term "transformation" in this context).
We'll also observe a few dear, old habits that are apparently hard to change.

Strong Leaders at all levels within an organization are a requisite for business success. Yet the leadership pipeline –internal architecture for growing leaders is often broken or
nonexistent. This updated edition of the bestselling book has been revised to help address the challenges of today’s business environment. Anchored in experience based case studies, this
remarkable book synchronizes a proven model for planning leadership succession and development for corporate organizations. The Second edition is an improvement based on

Future of Agile - Keynote at Agile for Business Conference Nov 2019 Edwin Dando
I was asked to deliver a keynote on my views of the future of Agile. I see agile organisations using a decentralized model, empowering teams to work directly with customers and in this talk reference the Haier micro-enterprises model as a successful implementation of this.
The Future of Agile | Closing keynote at the 2019 Agile for Business Forum Edwin Dando
I was asked to present on The Future of Agile - a reasonably dubious topic at the best of times. I only had 30 minutes so it was a very quick-fire presentation. In essence, my message was the future is bright, but "agile" has become highly fragmented and means many things to many people. The word "agile" is tainted and meaningless, as it has been twisted and bent by Johnny-come-lately's intent of cashing in on the latest trend, without actually understanding it.

5. 2008
Agile teams in software development
They had solved a fundamental
management problem:
how to combine
continuous innovation
with disciplined execution.
This will
be huge!
6. Why did Agile take root in software?
Software development was the first to encounter:
• The shift in power in the
marketplace from seller to buyer
• Unimaginable complexity
• The accelerating pace of change
They had to find a solution
Billions were
being
wasted!!
11. The Drucker Forum 2014
The world’s leading management experts scoffed
• “Agile is only for software”
• “Agile doesn’t scale”
• “Agile can’t handle complexity”
• “Agile isn’t reliable”
• “Agile doesn’t last”
12. “A firm with a name like
a piece of fruit
isn’t serious”
Sam Palmisano,
Former CEO of IBM, in HBR 2014
13. Members since 2015 have included
http://www.sdlearningconsortium.org/
2016 What the hell is
going on?
15. “Where does Agile stand in 2018?
“It is the best of the times and the worst of times…”
… the age of wisdom ... the age of foolishness,
… the epoch of belief … the epoch of incredulity,
… the season of Light … the season of Darkness,
… the spring of hope … the winter of despair,
… everything before us … nothing before us,
… all going to Heaven, … all going direct the other way…
Charles Dickens, A Tale of Two Cities ( 1859)
17. It is the worst of times….
Agile as ceremonies: Firms implementing the processes of Agile with no benefits
Consultants selling “get Agile quick” schemes
Scaling frameworks that are often just another name for bureaucracy
Some firms are using Agile to create sweatshops
Some firms are using Agile as a way to downsize
A huge amount of fake Agile going on
Agile conflicts with the goal of most big corporations: maximizing shareholder value
In this sea of BS, genuine Agile is getting hard to identify
Firms aren’t making much money from Agile
18. Some try to sidestep these issues
by hiding from the word ‘Agile’:
• “‘Agile’ is not a noun”
• ‘”We do ‘small ‘a’ agile”
• “We do ‘Business Agility’”
• “We do ‘Sense & Respond’”
• “We are ‘SAFe’”
This doesn’t fool anyone!
21. Parable #1
The Protestant Reformation
Martin Luther posted 95 theses in 1517, lamenting:
• the empty ceremonies of the Church
• sale of indulgences
• the corruption of the Church
People could only be saved by having the right mindset
Eventually the Roman Catholic Church reformed itself but it took over 100 years
22. Parable #2
The Copernican Revolution
Initially welcomed by the Pope in 1539
Then banned when the threat to the status quo was recognized
Galileo was imprisoned for life
Society itself changed: “divine right of kings?”
Kings started having their heads chopped off.
A different mindset changed the world.
Earth Sun
Earth
The Copernican Revolution in astronomy
Sun
23. Parable #3
The revolution in science
• In 1603, Sir Francis Bacon articulatied the idea that science
is based on a mindset of doubt
• Before this, science was based on confirming what was known.
“If a man will begin with certainties, he shall end
in doubts; but if he will be content to begin with doubts,
he shall end in certainties.”
Francis Bacon
• Science has unable to agree on the processes of science.
• What they agree on is mindset
24. Parable #4
Business process reengineering (BPR)
BPR was the business management strategy of the 1990s.
BPR redesigned processes, working backwards from the customer.
It was the management fashion of the day.
But most companies used it to reduce head count.
BPR became synonymous with downsizing and layoffs.
The underlying good idea died within a few years.
Processes were crushed by the prevailing efficency mindset.
Tom Davenport: “once out of the bottle, the reengineering genie quickly turned ugly.“
25. Lessons from these ‘big deals’
• Deep change in mindsets can take a very long time
• Mindsets can have huge societal and political changes
• Mindsets are more important than processes
• New processes can be quite fragile
“If we change the way we look at things,
the things we look at change.”
—Dr. Wayne Dyer
26. It is the worst of times: bad stuff is happening
Agile as a patch: Underlying management doesn’t change
Agile as ceremonies: Firms implementing the empty ceremonies of Agile, no benefits
Consultants selling “get Agile quick” schemes
Scaling frameworks are often just another name for bureaucracy
Many firms are using Agile to create sweatshops
Many firms are using Agile as a way to downsize
Many firms are declaring premature victory
A huge amount of fake Agile going on
Agile is being dumbed down
Agile is being declared a fad: “this too will pass”
Agile conflicts with the goal of public corporations: maximizing shareholder value
In the sea of BS, genuine Agile is getting hard to identify
Firms aren’t making much money from Agile
In a sea of BS, how do you identify real Agile?
How can firms make a lot of money from Agile?
27. Members since 2016 have included

32. “…a different way of
understanding, seeing
and acting in the world”
Agile is mindset
How different?
33. What is the Agile mindset?
• The Law of the Customer
• The Law of the Small Team
• The Law of the Network
The Agile mindset reflects three central ideas
34. 1. The Law of the Customer
The three laws of Agile
35. 21st Century: Power in the marketplace shifted to the customer
1. The Law of the Customer
There is only one
valid purpose of
a firm: to create
a customer

37. Degree of commitment to customer value
“We must
delight our
customers!”
We will delight
our customers, to the
extent possible within
our existing systems
and processes.”
20th Century management
39. Consistency of organizational goals is key

42. 2. The Law of the Small Team
The Agile mindset
43. This is about
• Descaling complex problems into small pieces
• Having work done by cross-functional self-organizing teams
• Working in small cycles, getting work completely done
• Getting direct feedback from customers
• Daily standups, and retrospectives
2. The Law of the Small Team
The three laws of Agile
44. 2. The Law of the Small Team
The three laws of Agile
Managers still exist, but their role changes
• From controlling to enabling
• Helping resolve priorities
• Removing impediments
• Ensuring teams resolve dependencies on other teams
The manager can’t tell the staff what to do!
45. 2. The Law of the Small Team
The three laws of Agile
There is no single Agile model:
• The best organizations learn from others
• Grow their own organic version of Agile
• Their version keeps evolving
Not even Spotify implements “the Spotify model”!
47. 3. The Law of the Network
The three laws of Agile
• The organization functions like a fluid network
• Communications flow up, down, sideways
• Ideas can come from anywhere
48. 3. The Law of the Network
The three laws of Agile
• The organization functions like a fluid network
This is a huge culture shift that can take years

Agile management
• Team of 4
• Customer focus
• Firm support
64. An unstoppable revolution
is now under way in our
society…
With greater competition, and with
the shift in power from seller to buyer,
customers can often insist on

lower cost
The dark secret of Agile today
Operational Agility may not make much money!
Why is Strategic Agility important?
65. An unstoppable revolution
is now under way in our
society…
The main financial gains
come from Strategic Agility:
market-creating innovation
that brings in new customers
The dark secret of Agile today
Operational Agility: making better products may not
make much money!
Why is Strategic Agility important?
66. Operational Agility is about
making existing products and
services better, faster, cheaper for
existing customers.
Strategic Agility is about market-
creating innovation, that brings in
new customers.
67. This is the same concept with different labels:
• ‘Market-creating innovation’
Clayton Christensen
• ‘Blue Ocean strategy’
Kim & Mauborgne
• ‘Strategic Agility‘

72. Strategic Agility usually requires specific decisions
How to implement Strategic Agility
Cirque du Soleil
77. 1. Teams (and firms) tend to focus on existing customers
• Product owners (almost by definition) focus on
existing products and existing customers
2. Teams (and firms) hesitate to eliminate features
3. Teams (and firms) miss what the competition is doing
4. Cannibalizing profitable products is hard: e.g. iPhone vs iPod
5. Strategic Agility may require substantial investment
Operational Agility rarely leads to market-creating innovations
How to implement Strategic Agility?
79. Customer

In existing markets, the firm is not alone!

Bloody “Red Oceans” of fierce competition
Why Operational Agility has difficulty making money…
80. Blue Oceans of market–creating innovations
There is less competition in the “blue oceans” of new businesses?
81. From Operational to Strategic Agility
Non-customers

There are many more non-customers than customers
82. From Operational to Strategic Agility
Non-customers

It’s not either-or: you need both!
83. Blue Oceans of market–creating innovations
There is also less competition in the “blue oceans” of new businesses?
You don’t find blue oceans
by ‘sense & respond’
You have to create your
own blue oceans!
84. An unstoppable revolution
is now under way in our
society…
Systematic generation of
market-creating value
propositions requires an
innovation playbook
