Why Agile
Product Delivery?
In order to achieve Business
Agility, enterprises must rapidly
increase their ability to deliver
innovative products and
services. To be sure that the
enterprise is creating the right
solutions for the right
customers at the right time,
they must balance their
execution focus with a
customer focus.

Why Enterprise
Solution Delivery?
Humanity has always dreamed big;
and scientists, engineers, and
software developers then turn those
big dreams into reality. That requires
innovation, experimentation, and
knowledge from diverse disciplines.
Engineers and developers bring
Enterprise Solution Delivery
these innovations to life by defining
and coordinating all the activities to
successfully specify, design, test,
deploy, operate, evolve, and
decommission large, complex
solutions.

Nine best practices for Enterprise Solution Delivery
4 Used to build large and complex customer Solutions that require the coordination of multiple Agile
Release Trains (ARTs) and Suppliers

Why Lean Portfolio
Management?
Traditional approaches to
portfolio management were not
designed for a global economy
or the impact of digital
disruption. These factors put
pressure on enterprises to work
under a higher degree of
uncertainty, and yet deliver
innovative solutions much faster.

Without Lean Portfolio Management
Why
Organizational
Agility?
Without organizational agility,
enterprises simply cannot
respond sufficiently to the
challenges and opportunities
that today’s rapidly changing
markets present. Without it,
employees and the enterprise
associate an individual’s value
with their functional skills,
rather than business
outcomes.

Without Organizational Agility
Why Continuous
Learning Culture?
In order to thrive in the current
climate, organizations must
evolve into adaptive engines of
change, powered by a culture
of fast and effective learning at
all levels. Learning
organizations leverage the
collective knowledge,
experience, and creativity of
their workforce, customers,
supply chain, and the broader
ecosystem.
31
Continuous Learning Culture
32
Learning organization
Employees at every level are learning and growing together
4 Personal Mastery – Build individual “T-shaped” breadth of
knowledge in multiple disciplines for deep and broad expertise
4 Shared Vision – Leaders envision and articulate exciting
possibilities and invite others to contribute to a common view of the
future
4 Team Learning – Teams achieve common objectives by sharing
knowledge, suspending assumptions, and ‘thinking together’
4 Mental Models – Teams surface their existing assumptions and
generalizations while working with an open mind to create new
models
4 Systems Thinking – Everyone sees the larger picture and
recognizes that optimizing individual components does not optimize
the system
Relentless Improvement
The entire enterprise as a system is continuously being challenged to improve
33
Innovation Culture
Leaders create an environment that supports creative thinking,
curiosity, and challenging the status quo
4 Innovative People - Instilling innovation 4 Experimentation and Feedback - Conducting
requires a commitment to cultivating experiments iteratively is the most effective path to
courage and aptitude for innovation and learning
risk-taking
4 Pivot Without Mercy or Guilt - When fact patterns
4 Time and Space for Innovation includes dictate that a hypothesis will be proven false, pivot
providing work areas conducive to quickly to a new one
creative activities, as well as setting aside
4 Innovation Riptides – Innovation flows
dedicated time to explore and experiment
continuously up, down and across the enterprise
4 Go See - Innovation ideas are sparked
by seeing the problems first-hand—
witnessing how customers interact with
solutions and understanding their
problems

Why Lean-Agile
Leadership?
An organization’s managers,
executives, and other leaders
are responsible for the
adoption, success, and
ongoing improvement of Lean-
Agile development and the
competencies that lead to
business agility. Only they
have the authority to change
and continuously improve the
systems that govern how work
is performed.
Lean-Agile Leadership
35
Mindset and Principles
“The basic tenets of Lean challenge many of the aspects of traditional
management theory and calls for a mindset that is foreign to most executives.”
—Jacob Stoller, author of The Lean CEO
Leading by Example
“Setting an example is not the main means of influencing others,
it is the only means.” —Albert Einstein
36
Leading Change
“In short, to make a Switch, leaders need to script the critical moves”
— Chip and Dan Heath
4 Change vision is how leaders communicate why change is
needed in ways that inspire, motivate, and engage people
4 Change leadership is the ability to positively influence and
motivate others to engage in the change through the leader’s
personal advocacy and drive
4 A powerful coalition for change is when individuals from
multiple levels and across silos are empowered and have the
influence necessary to effectively lead the change
4 Psychological safety occurs when leaders create an
environment for risk-taking that supports change without fear
of negative consequences to self-image, status, or career
4 Training ensures that everyone has the knowledge of the new
way of working including a commitment by leaders to their
own training

We had all of the knowledge, all of the skills, but we just didn’t
have the experience. I think it was extremely important to work
with a Scaled Agile Partner, … to essentially shorten the
timeframe when we could take the wheel back and run the
transformation ourselves.
