Scrum@Scale

Faced with a 1.5-year development cycle and over 100 misaligned projects, one of Guatemala’s largest financial services companies struggled to respond to market opportunities. By implementing Scrum@Scale, restructuring teams, and prioritizing high-value work, they transformed their ability to deliver results.?? Scrum@Scale Transformation Results: ? 3x increase in projects delivered within 10 months (from ~20 per year to 69 successfully completed projects) ? 10% increase in profitability, making October the most profitable month in company history—even during a global pandemic ? 3% year-over-year growth, despite industry-wide challenges?

Recently, I’ve had several conversations about the challenges of driving incremental delivery and continuous planning at scale. Too often, teams fall into a cycle of pushing work forward without clear visibility into execution capacity, leading to last-minute crunches and unpredictable delivery. One key shift? Leveraging aggregated velocity data to improve prioritization and execution flow. By understanding actual delivery patterns, teams can make better trade-offs, smooth out work distribution, and create a more predictable, high-quality delivery cycle. Thanks Scrum@Scale for making my presentation on this topic public! I would love to hear how others tackle this challenge.

Delivering an MVP in just 7 weeks instead of 5 months? It’s possible with the right approach! In Gabriel Jank's case study, a machinery manufacturer used Scrum@Scale to accelerate delivery, focusing on cross-functional teams, clear prioritization, and leadership removing roadblocks. But what do you think is the biggest challenge in delivering an MVP quickly? Vote below and share your thoughts! ?? #Agile #ScrumAtScale #MVP #DigitalTransformation #AgileLeadership

From 5 Months to 7 Weeks ?? When a leading machinery manufacturer in Brazil lost direct access to customers due to the pandemic, they had to rethink everything—fast. Traditionally reliant on in-person sales at agriculture and construction fairs, they needed a new digital approach. The challenge? Their existing waterfall structure wasn’t built for speed. By leveraging Scrum@Scale, they: ? Delivered a Minimal Viable Product (MVP) in just 7 weeks instead of 5 months ? Achieved 70% of the total value in those 7 weeks ? Prioritized high-impact features while eliminating 20% of unnecessary work This transformation was possible because of rapid decision-making, empowered teams, and an MVP mindset. By focusing on value over features, they accelerated delivery and adapted to market needs—without sacrificing quality. How has your team driven faster value delivery?

John Deere's Global IT Group set out on a mission to improve speed to outcomes through a holistic Agile transformation—and the impact has been exemplary. By implementing Scrum@Scale, DevOps, and technical upskilling, the team not only met but exceeded its ambitious goals. ? Output increased by 165% (exceeding the 125% goal) ? Time to market reduced by 63% (initial target was 40%) ? Engineering ratio at 77% (above the 75% goal) This transformation was made possible through strong leadership, a commitment to Agile excellence, and an investment in scaling Scrum the right way. These results aren’t just numbers—they represent a fundamental shift in how John Deere delivers value, faster and more efficiently than ever before. A huge shoutout to the teams driving this change! ?? Read the full case study at https://lnkd.in/g6Zsjdzw #AgileTransformation #ScrumAtScale #Leadership #JohnDeere

Team morale can make or break Agile success. Heidi Nibouar’s case study showed that shifting to shorter planning cycles boosted engagement from -16% to 60% in six months. What impacts morale most? ??

After the first six months, with the addition of a second team to the monthly check-ins, there were no more instances of missed deliverables due to unidentified dependencies. The Northwest Evaluation Association (NWEA) faced a major challenge: quarterly planning cycles were draining team morale and making it harder to adapt. Teams felt pressure to commit to rigid timelines, even when work was unpredictable. By introducing shorter planning cycles and monthly check-ins, they achieved: ? Reduced pressure on teams to commit to unrealistic timelines ? More predictable delivery without sacrificing agility ? Stronger cross-team collaboration and improved ownership Employee engagement soared from -16% to 60% in just six months! ?? How has planning cadence impacted your team’s engagement?

?? When scaling Scrum, improving velocity across multiple teams can be challenging. What do you believe has the most impact?

???A 115% Velocity Increase? That’s the Power of Scrum. In a high-stakes logistics project with tight deadlines, evolving requirements, and distributed teams, Scrum made the seemingly impossible possible. By embracing empiricism, adaptability, and collaboration, Romaric Chardonneau helped the team deliver a robust Warehouse Management System (WMS)?on time—avoiding a €1M penalty—and improved their velocity by?115%!
