Experience Report

Any transformation is hard. Challenges come up right at the conceptual stage through the transformation journey and until measuring and declaring success. DevOps transformation is no different. However in a DevOps transformation an additional lack of understanding of its principles adds to the complexity – ‘DevOps is Continuous Integration and Deployment using a set of tools’.
While tools play a key role in realizing the benefits of DevOps, the people – leadership, middle management, teams on the ground all of them – make the journey successful. Similarly organization realignment to feature teams also supports people aspect of DevOps and its faster implementation. This presentation highlights the people aspects of DevOps implementation along with early warnings of potential impediments. It also provides tips that could help the people at different hierarchical levels of the organization to plan, measure, improve and successfully sail through the DevOps transformation.This is an experience report based on our involvement as Agile and DevOps coaches for our customers across geography in different domains.

Beginner
What is an Agile Transformation for a large organization (Big fish)? How do we get there? Isn’t it about bringing and building a positive change in the culture of Collaboration, Cultivation and competence with less command & control so as to empower people to be energized and innovative? So, goodbye Monday Blues. A positive change in a transformation is typically attributed to organizational culture and mindset which sets the approach of stakeholders towards delivering business value. This also sets a tone of moving away from Agile Adoption to Agile Transformation since the real benefit is in being Agile rather doing Agile. While adopting Agile practices bring silo structured discipline at team level, a change in way of thinking across organization to effectively achieve business objectives helps in being Agile.
In our experience of leading large enterprises in Transformation journey, it starts with observing the use of legacy IT system to support business operations and is in the path of replacing them with much wider user friendly, growing technology adaptive and versatile systems. Global leadership guides its organization stakeholders to adopt Agile mindset and work towards applying practices and principles of Agile so as to make its organization, a truly Agile organization delivering business value rapidly and frequently.
Attaining enterprise Agility is driven by changing the mindset of IT and business to function as one unified team. Common objectives are achieved by providing an environment conducive to collaboration, sharing and building trust. In this presentation, our focus is to highlight the challenges and learnings from big fish Agile transformations. Challenges span across Big Bang versus focused approach, “My Agile” to “Organizational Agile”, Onboarding Transformation catalyst to bringing in cultural change.
