Agile has been in the mainstream for 20+ years and yet most people and organisations are still struggling to see/feel the real benefits. The promise of Agile and Agility is well understood yet most teams and organisations regress once coaching and consulting efforts have ceased. The questions I set out to answer are 1) Why aren’t the benefits coming through; and 2) How can I change this. Geshido is the combination of experience, observations and theory that are all aimed at making things better and simpler for teams and organisations.

In this session, I will explain the virtues, concepts and practices that form the Geshido approach too enterprise agility and agile teams.

Geshido was founded on a simple idea: How do we get back to the basics of delivering high quality products that benefit our customers and our organisation. This should be the heart and soul of every organisation that wants to remain competitive into the future.

Geshido practitioners want to get back to basics; the basics of delivering beneficial products. Geshido practitioners want to focus on the practices, techniques and tools that improve delivery for teams and increase delight for customers.

The session will cover the 4 virtues that form the foundation of Geshido. The 4 virtues are then unpacked to techniques and practices that are recommended to practitioners. The techniques and practices are further tied together via the Geshido assessment matrix which highlights areas for immediate improvement.
