Lightbulb moments are not something you can explain, they are something that you need to experience. Just like success factors for agility. As an agile coach, I often deal with teams who want to become better. If we engage in this process and accept the uncertainty, we can learn and gain new insights. Mindfulness facilitates this process and can help you work more successfully.

Scrum, which is the best-known framework, promises to pave the way to agility if used correctly. The aim of this blog post is not to explain or define Scrum. Instead, we will be taking a closer look at the requirements and the challenges when it comes to agile scaling that need to be overcome to get a majority of a company’s staff on board.

No Scrum values, no successful application. The Scrum Guide leaves us with many uncertainties. We have to find a solution ourselves using the values and framework. However, applying Scrum successfully depends on whether people are able to live out the five Scrum values. In my blog post, I will show you why this is important.

As soon as ‘agility’ becomes a topic within companies, the Scrum framework also enters the conversation. This framework is easy to understand and quick to implement, but difficult to put into practice. For success, we need a specific inner attitude. Behaving in a way that adds value and exemplifies the Scrum values builds trust. Our attitude of trust in the cause and people gives us the ability to shape our success.

Scrum and other agile frameworks have been gaining a lot of traction lately, especially in IT projects. These project frameworks are mainly characterised by greater flexibility, faster responsiveness and a stronger focus on end users. Today, Scrum is often combined with other proven methods, techniques and frameworks – such as Kanban, Design Thinking and BusDevOps. What all these approaches have in common is that the chosen path is reflected on in an iterative process and that adaptation to the desired state often requires creativity on the part of those involved. This blog post explores the question of how successful ideas can be generated while also adhering to the objective of maximising the product.
