Blending Scrum and Kanban to Create an End-to-End Agile Enterprise
Large scale agile adoption requires top down intent, with bottom up implementation. We’ll explain how we transformed a 100 person company from ad-hoc and waterfall practices to a true end-to-end agile organization…inclusive of sales, marketing and support. We’ll cover the initial assessment and organizational design, how we introduced team-based delivery practices and put into place program and portfolio management to align all aspects of delivery to achieve business objectives. We’ll explain in detail the final state and the fundamental operational principles that make it all work.
