What if I told you that heavy metal and Agile have a lot in common? 

What if a musician could walk into a room full of Agile coaches and nobody could tell them apart? 

What if there are universal principles that can be applied irrespective of what you do?

What if frameworks don’t actually work?

Business Agility (BA) is like music — you can’t explain it. You can describe it, but if one hasn’t experienced it, they will never really understand what you mean. 

The session will bring practical advice and a different angle towards how we foster Business Agility on a company level.
