Presented at Agile2019 in Washington D.C.
Is Enterprise Agility an oxymoron? We say we value Individuals and interactions over processes and tools however, the enterprise agility space is drowning in processes and tools. There are countless frameworks and innumerable tools to measure every part of a teams performance to dizzying detail. But what about individuals and interactions? Does this get overlooked because it’s “too hard”? How does an enterprise scale an agile practice beyond a team, into a team of teams, or boldly into an entire enterprise but not lose sight of this principle?
In this session, Em & Adrienne will trade war stories with you about with Agile in the Enterprise and what role valuing Individuals and Interactions plays in successful transformations.
Learning Outcomes:
Identify Enterprise behaviours that are incongruent with valuing Individuals and Interactions, including leadership pitfalls.
Explain the economic benefit of valuing individuals and interactions
Describe the types of behaviours displayed by Enterprises that values Individuals and Interactions
Apply valuing Individuals and Interactions in an Enterprise context

“Self-selection is a facilitated process
of letting people self-organize into
small, cross-functional teams. Based on
the belief that people are at their
happiest and most productive if they
can choose what they work on and who
they work with…”

“Businesses often forget
about the culture, and
ultimately, they suffer for it

COMMUNICATE, COMMUNICATE, COMMNICATE
”Communication comes in
both words and deeds. The
latter is generally the most
powerful form. Nothing
undermines change more
than behavior by important
individuals that is
inconsistent with the verbal
communication. And yet this
happens all the time, even in
some well-regarded
companies.”
