Most successful Agile transformation programs are based on a formal but adaptive change process, tailored based on the organization’s business priorities, challenges and constraints.
An adaptive change process involves:
Natural resistance to change:
Change is hard, specially cultural change. Lean & Agile transformation seek to change not only the process but also the cultural aspects of an organization. Hence, careful planning and adept execution is required to achieve desired results.
Aligning individual goals with the change:
Often the perceived goals of the transformation are not aligned with the individual goals of many employees. Or simply, there is no motivation for many employees to support change. This results in active or passive resistance to change.
Skills and infrastructural challenges:
Certain skills and infrastructural capabilities are critical for Lean & Agile transformation to succeed. Robust training and coaching support, and proactive planning for infrastructural and tools capabilities could significantly enhance the chances of successful transformation.
