TransformationalInnovation:HowAgileMethodscanBenefitfromSystemsThinkingKishau Rogers

Iceberg Model! Address the real-problem by

thinking beyond the event-level

! Identify opportunities to deliver the highest value

! Clarifying the real issue drives design

CASE: Elevate The Help desk

Your discovery team are the thinkers responsible for

identifying patterns, structural issues and mental models, not

responding to “events”

Practice 2: Reflections

Double-sided reflections

Shifted-focus reflectionsMoore, Margaret. Coaching Psychology Manual. 2nd ed., Wolters Kluwer, 2016.

Simple Reflections

Client:How would you know what I am going through? You’ve probably never even done an Agile transformation in an organization of our size.

Interviewer:You feel that I don’t have enough expertise to help you.

Amplified Reflections

Client:How would you know what I am going through? You’ve probably never even done an Agile transformation in an organization of our size.

Interviewer:You feel that it is impossible for your company to implement Agile.

Double-Sided ReflectionsClient:This company is gigantic, and it is full of red tape. It will probably take too much effort to get the full benefits of Scrum. We might need to do a hybrid approach.

Interviewer:You know that it will be a challenge to implement Agile in this company, and you also know it is important to increase your teams’ efficiency.

Shifted-Focus ReflectionsClient:You are an expert in the field. I pay you. Now, tell me what I have to do.

Interviewer:I am more interested in what you want to do. I’d like to find a way to help you get through this situation. Tell me what is important to you.

Shifted-Focus ReflectionsClient:You are an expert in the field. I pay you. Now, tell me what I have to do.

Interviewer:I am more interested in what you want to do. I’d like to find a way to help you get through this situation. Tell me what is important to you.
