Our Talk at BCS, Covent Garden: Agile Leadership on a Burning Platform – The Trials & Tribulations of an Agile Transformation

24Apr2019 – London, UK

It was a full house yesterday at BCS, The Chartered Institute for IT, Covent Garden, London, where our team shared the true story of: “Agile Leadership on a Burning Platform – The trials & tribulations of an agile transformation”.

It was case Study for an Agile transformation, imagine the scenario:
– The company has lost 25% in revenue & people.
– The employee Net Promoter Score (eNPS) is down to a record low of 51%.
– The leadership team has failed a previous Agile transformation miserably and could not inspire a positive sustainable change.
– Faced with a survival challenge that could have led to site closure – things needed to transform across the whole organisation.
Xecofy was part of the team that led the transformation and some of the core issues we faced included:
– Top leaders disconnected from delivery teams
– Leadership behaviours challenged to the limits
– Extremely low staff motivation
– Project managers burning out
– Customers unhappy
– Suppliers ready to cancel
