Being Agile at Organizational Scale
Being Agile at Organizational Scale
There are many books and posts about agile teams. Doing Scrum or Kanban is a state-of-the-art in software development. But, how does it scale in big organizations? How can agile methods cross department boarders?
I’ve found some answers on the web. In upcoming blogs I’ll go into more details.
Here’s my list of the methods with links to further reading:
