Summary<\/h2>\n
\n

Rapid enterprise growth within the financial services industry presented emerging opportunities for her company that was unable to capitalize on the new possibilities due to a slow response time. Their year-and-a-half development cycle was leading to a loss in their industry market share.<\/span><\/p>\n

The company had more than 60 projects in progress and 40 more waiting in the queue. The project teams found they were unable to deliver more than 20 small tasks and projects per year due to\u00a0 lack of project and phase definition poor communication, and departmental isolation. Most significantly, projects were not aligned with the company\u2019s strategic goals and vision. According to Ana, \u201cWhen everything is top priority, nothing is a priority.\u201d\u00a0 Without prioritization, reaction time was too sluggish to realize success when opportunities were presented. \u201cIn an industry where right timing is key and the first player takes it all, prioritization is key.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Taking it to Leadership: Decisions with Value<\/b><\/p>\n

Ana presented a new way of working, the Scrum@Scale <\/a>Framework, first to the CEO and then to the entire team. Ana helped them understand that added value derives from completed projects rather than projects in progress. With limited resources, understanding the business value of a project and choosing wisely to reach enterprise goals enables organizational growth.<\/span><\/p>\n

Ana analyzed the entire process to identify internal and external bottlenecks to come up with a plan. The entire project list was examined, projects were decomposed into features and the expected value was identified; only the projects aligned with the enterprise\u2019s vision and goals were kept. Once the project list was reduced from over 100 to 40 key projects, these were prioritized by projected value added to the company.<\/span><\/p>\n

Company structure was reorganized from siloed to cross-functional teams. One-week Sprints were implemented for all projects, with Business Analysts working on no more than two projects and development teams working on only one project at a time. With all departments working on the same priority order and expected delivery date, the company could begin to have tribes and squads progressing in a timely way on the backlog.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Leap of Faith<\/b><\/p>\n

This company had to take a leap of faith and trust the 180\u00b0\u00a0 process changes would prove successful. Initially, product owners feared having fewer projects in progress, but weekly Sprint Reviews focused on highlighting progress mitigated these fears. The ultimate test was the sudden changes created by the pandemic, but the new organizational system proved agile enough to adapt rapidly to the new reality!<\/span><\/p>\n

Outcomes from Implementing Scrum@Scale<\/strong><\/p>\n

The restructuring and prioritizing were an extraordinary success! After 10 months (eight of them in the middle of a pandemic), the number of projects delivered tripled!<\/span><\/p>\n
