When is Your Agile Transformation Done?

Description

After over a decade of agile transformations. many organizations have several years of agile experience of agile are naturally looking for signs that the change is complete. Attention turns to the level of skill or maturity an organization needs in order to declare the transformation a success. As a result. models of agile maturity have emerged that promise to somehow measure how agile you are.The good news is that agile. by definition. should be iteratively delivering value from the moment a transformation starts. Looking back. your ability to deliver has already changed immeasurably. You are already faster. more focused. and delivering a product with higher quality. The bad news is that you have only just started your journey. Change itself has changed. as Gary Hamel said. What looks mature today will be 'bare essentials' tomorrow.Using the concept of Wardley Maps. we will talk about what agile maturity looks like today. and where agile maturity will go in the future. We will learn how iterative value delivery is the price to pay to move along the experience curve. The more frequently you deliver value. the faster you move along the experience curve. By introducing a model of increasing agility. you will be able to map out the path of your transformation. filling in any gaps that you may have and beginning to understand what direction your transformation may take you in the future.
