Driving Agile Adoption

A leading financial services provider was struggling to scale agile practices, facing inefficiencies and stalled adoption. Through a structured training and change program, we increased adoption by 30% and built the foundation for sustainable enterprise-wide agility.

Situation

A large financial services and insurance provider’s Agile 101 training failed to achieve full adoption, leaving teams struggling with work decomposition and reducing operational efficiency by an estimated 25%. Resistance to change, unclear stakeholder roles, and lack of post-training support created silos, slowed agile maturity, and threatened scalability. Without practical application, workshop learnings were not being integrated into day-to-day work, risking decreased adoption as agile complexity increased.

Resolution

We designed and piloted an Agile Training Program that blended practical application with structured post-training support. This multi-phase approach integrated stakeholder alignment, tailored training, and change adoption strategies to increase agile readiness, collaboration, and efficiency. Early pilot results indicate a 30% increase in adoption, improved cross-team alignment, and faster decision-making.
