In this podcast Shane Hastie, Lead Editor for Culture & Methods, spoke to Lee Cunningham about the latest State of Agile report, recently released by Collabnet/VersionOne.

Why listen to this podcast:

• This is the 13th year the State of Agile report has been released

• There is a strengthening of momentum towards holistic value stream management

• Most organisations are adopting agile for the right reasons: they are trying to accelerate the ability to get software built with high quality and get it into the hands of their customers, managing changing priorities and improve alignment between IT and business groups

• The factors that impact success for scaling agile adoption are having internal agile coaches, executive coaches, company-provided training, consistent practices and processes and implementation of a common tool

• Adoption of value stream thinking and integrating end-to-end delivery is an important goal that advanced organisations are adopting, but it’s a significant change that is not easy
