Organizational assessment
Focus not so much on changing the culture, teach agile concepts or create a more humanistic environment - these may be outcomes of an agile transformation, but the strategic goal of agility is competitive advantage and enganced business results.
Take personal objectives and emotions out of the equation and take charge of the responsibility to take a sober inventory of the organization’s current state, sttegically, culturally, operationally and create an agile roadmap tha fits its will + desire to transform (not yours).
