12. The Agile Enterprise
Abstract
As an agile consultant, it’s gratifying to see the evolution within teams under your guidance. Delivery teams begin to communicate and collaborate. Managers make the transition from foremen to leaders. Executives begin to understand that enablement, encouragement, and service leadership is more effective, and more human, than mere power. The enterprise begins to untangle some of its faulty processes and legacy dysfunctions, and begins to accept the simplicity and honesty of agility. The agile advisor who guides the enterprise to the edge of substantial improvement in process, culture, and leadership can rightfully have pride in that accomplishment.
