Imagine. Let’s start rethinking Agile transformations. What if Leaders would issue an “Agile statement of intent” instead of attempting another costly framework-driven transformation? How would our life at work be different? Can you imagine the agility innovation that this would spark?

For example, what if a Leader made the following statement:

“For our company to be successful, our teams really need to have a desire for pleasing our customers. Our teams must be able to adapt quickly based on customer feedback when the need arises.

We want our teams to build our customers high-quality products that leverage modern technologies and are maintainable. Ideally, these products are built incrementally and are always in a ready state that allows for demonstration and release.

We also would like our teams to exhibit a spirit of innovation, courageously experimenting with ways to improve our product offering and the flow of value to our customers.

We want everyone to feel respected and edified within a diverse and psychologically safe environment. And most of all, we want our team members to have a healthy work-life balance.

As leaders, we are committed to building an environment such as this to help us all be successful. But we need your help. This is our ask. We cannot do it alone!

Therefore, each team and organization is empowered to figure out the details of what this looks like for your unique situation. We are here to support your endeavors, so please reach out with any questions or concerns.”
