In this talk, I’ll share the story of a company with around 600 people that embarked on a transformation towards an agile way of working, with the primary goal of improving their time-to-market. The new enterprise was designed on the drawing board, the reorganization was executed, and their time-to-market... got worse. I will explain why there has been no improvement and what can be done to avoid this by using Flight Levels® thinking.
