Business value can be enhanced through intelligent Executive leadership, ownership and commitment. Over the years, being involved in Agile projects or Agile transformations, I have seen many failures.  Perhaps Nokia is a well-known failure, just showing us that in the Age of Software any organisation, no matter how successful in the past, can fail.  This is where intelligent Executive leadership plays a huge role in Agile transformations. Agile, Scrum or Kanban is the vehicle, not the outcome!  Business value is the outcome!  There are a few major aspects that are outside the boundaries of Agile or Scrum that executives must consider:

• A full understanding of the quantum shift and actually leading the transformation at the C-Suite
• Moving from a silo-based org structure to value stream networks
• Moving from project-based to product-based budgeting across the product lifecycle
• The understanding of what the true value of a product is and putting customers at the centre of everything
• Arranging teams based on the flow of value to eliminate dependencies, reduce handoffs
• Arranging architectural design around the flow of value
• Having meaningful flow metrics that close the gap between business and IT, allowing for trade-offs
