One of the biggest challenges for leaders in organizations adopting agile ways of working is all the problems that agile uncovers. With tight feedback loops on product, process, and people, along with a burgeoning culture of speaking truth to power and telling it like it is, teams start to uncover all sorts of issues. All of this organizational dysfunction that has been swept under the rug for many years is finally seeing the light of day! Your teams are starting call out departments, process, and functions that seem to serve the primary purpose of slowing down delivery. The bureaucratic trappings of a complex organization, also known as bullsh*t work, is designed to control and “process risk away.” This is now one of the biggest challenges for your organization to overcome, and how you as a leader can add real value to your new agile teams.
