We will examine change intensity levels and reasons that drive acceleration of change, focussing on leading change at an organizational level and scaling Agile appropriately. When studying Agile application success stories and theory, it's easy to think in terms of "best practices" but, what's best for one industry, company, or project is not always the best for another. Not all aspects of the business is suitable for the application of Agile. Not every organization will benefit from adopting Agile, and not every leader will facilitate yet another change to success.
