Adaptive Leadership Platforms & Strategic Flow

Do any of the scenarios below resonate with you?  (Solution follows)

Plan and Launch an Agile Culture Transformation

We must mitigate risk.   I’ve heard horror stories from colleagues.  We are in our first true attempt to transform.  Help us avoid the serious pitfalls experienced by other companies since Agile’s inception in 2001.

Resistant Managers must become True Leaders

Certain managers are not supporting Teams appropriately.  Help us mentor key people to adopt appropriate internal desire and behavior to empower and optimize our Product/Service Teams. Lean Leadership is desperately needed.

Qualify Hire Candidates for our Adaptive Culture

We have worked smart and hard to adapt our work culture.   We cherish the Connection between our Teams and Customers.  The Agile Revolution hasn’t reached other organizations and inbound candidates do not clearly match our evolved Teaming needs.   We need an Experienced eye to help us find and retain talent that truly embraces an Adaptive, Inclusive culture.

Recover a Failing Culture Transformation

Our organization is in trouble.  We lack a Transformation plan, sense of progress and control.  We are unable to see status of Roadmaps and Delivery.  Accountability is low and complaints are high.  Help!

Innovation and Speed to Market

We are not seeing truly innovative solutions, or at least not at a market competitive pace.  Help our Product Management team quickly validate what customers really want instead of meeting their minimum expectations.  We have the wrong impression of MVP.

How to Meet Commitments Made to Customers

We are making reasonable progress in our Transformation, but we struggle when setting commitment dates.  Help our Agile Portfolios optimize how they Prioritize and Sequence work for observable dependencies.   How can we improve both Predictability and Adaptability of our Portfolio (or Program) Plans?

Team Empowerment and Ownership Issues

Leadership feels that we have fully embraced Agile Culture adoption, but we are not seeing appropriate ownership by teams for Continuous Improvement.   Quality and Predictability issues hold us back from delighting customers.  Teams seem less effective when adapting to reasonable product plan change requests.  What are we missing?

Change Agent Support Call Plans

I could use some discrete help.   Let me call on you when needed.  Help me with real, live issues.  Help me motivate people to own the Culture Transformation and place responsibility where it should lie.

Value Stream Identification

We have read the agenda for the standard “one day workshop” approach on Scaled Agile Inc. and Gold Partner sites.   It doesn’t seem possible to “knock this out in 1 day”.  There must be a more relevant approach?  Yep!  Let us show you.

Prepare for an Interview in an Adaptive Culture

I feel that I have the experience and skills required to help an Agile culture thrive.  Help me clarify how my experience can assist my future employer’s success.  My HR title doesn’t obviously match the target role.

I had the pleasure of working closely with David as a coach of professionals dedicated to learning and growth for themselves and their customers in a large, diverse organization.  He established trust, rapport, and respect.  David gets to the heart of an issue and enables others to tap into their innate talents and abilities to learn, grow and achieve desired results.  I would recommend him as a great coach and mentor to anyone desiring to achieve a higher level of personal and organizational growth and accomplishment.
