The largest we’re running right now is about 13,000 and I am telling you the patterns hold across all the different companies. And believe it or not, we’re deep into this on a couple of like multi thousand people Transformations. But what if it shows us impediments that we don’t have agency to fix? We just get stuck, right? And so all I’m saying is that the things that we need to do to fix it have to be first order concerns.
It just shows you your impediments, right? And then it’s up to us to remove the impediments. So why isn’t it working the same way all the time? Right? It’s because our fundamental hypothesis of transformation with scrum fundamentally taught us was that Scrum doesn’t fix anything. Because the problem that you have is that when you train people and you hope for improvement, I think we all have enough anecdotal evidence of this 20 years in that sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t. This is how we are able to measure innovation and product Fed, right? And you can start to create a metrics program that kind of measures where you’re at along this continuum. And this is how we can start to measure what the reduction in cycle time is on the features, right? The more frequent that we’re able to release into production, right? Here’s how we’re able to measure getting the teams operating with more autonomy. And the idea is what we want to be able to say is that we had a hypothesis that we are going to take this group of nine teams and we are going to get them predictable in four months and here’s how we measure that they are predictable.Īnd then we’re going to get them to reduce batch size. It’s delivering in smaller batches, it’s able to put things in market faster. It’s an organization that is actually delivering with better predictability. And what I would suggest is that when we’re starting to think about literally managing change, what the unit of value of a Transformation is, is a Transformed organization. Which that’s actually kind of valid, but I mean there’s lots of like what I might call like vanity metrics in a Transformation. What is the unit of value in an Agile Transformation, right? How many people have like a Transformation plan that says, I’m going to train these people, I’m going to get these Scrum Masters, I’m going to run them through CSM class and I’m gonna make sure these teams have backlogs. Learn more in this short two-minute video with our CEO, Mike Cottmeyer. One that’s operating with predictability and is able to get smaller increments of product into market faster so that your company can begin seeing an ROI. The actual base unit of value is in a Transformation is a Transformed organization. While those things might be necessary, on their own they don’t provide true value to your organization. The fact of the matter is it doesn’t matter how many ScrumMasters you run through a CSM class, it doesn’t matter how many people you train, and how many daily standups you run. There are a lot of vanity metrics floating around in Agile.
