Overview of the Enterprise Agility Focus Points Toolkit

Our team began with a number of focus points:

• Why?
• Customers
• Common Drivers
• Key Value Indicators
• Corporate DNA, including: Mindset, Behaviors, Habits, and Tools
• Commitments
• Organizational Structure

Once we identified the focus points, we began to identify and list common impediments that Scrum Coaches observe, typical analysis, and explored possible interventions.

Attached are 2 PDF files with examples of the 20+ items we identified:

• Enterprise Agilty Focus Points – Enterprise Alignment
• Enterprise Agilty Focus Points – Conflicting Objectives
