Not getting what you expect from Agile? Finish the Journey!
·OnlineOnlineOver the last few years of working, training, and discussing Agile, there seems to be a growing backlash.
We hear statistics like:
· According to the 17th State of Agile Report (2024), satisfaction with Agile dropped from over 70% in previous years to roughly 59% in 2024.
· Research shows that 57% of business leaders report high levels of friction, suggesting their organizations are not truly agile.
· Larger organizations are more likely to report that Agile is "not working well" (approx. 30%) compared to smaller companies.And on and on. If working Agile has truly “won the framework war”, what happened? The same sources continue to show that working agile improves team satisfaction, results, and time to market, so where’s the disconnect?
More importantly, is there a data-driven tipping point at which a company would truly reap the benefits of the Agile transformation? This was the question on my mind as I wrote “Finish the Journey”, out of which also came the D*RAM Organizational Alignment Index.
And ultimately, I found that yes, there *is* a measurable tipping point.
The tipping point doesn’t rely solely on the Agile mindset. All the team empowerment and psychological safety in the world doesn’t translate into positive corporate movement if the organizational direction is unclear. By tracking the mindset and culture of the organization against the direction and controls of the management, we can provide a clear, data-driven assessment of the health of the organization, and how close they are, or aren’t, to unleashing the creativity and productivity within their teams.About the speaker:
