Creating Value Streams Through Agility

The agile movement is a revolution in software development. Through an iterative and incremental approach, the movement builds upon industry best practices to deliver operational excellence that meets customer needs. It’s the de facto standard for many organizations.

That being said, many companies still struggle with implementing agile practices.

Many fail to understand that agility is not about adopting a practice or buying a software tool. The agile movement is a culture or mindset that promotes rapid and flexible responses to changing customer needs. It cannot be bought but learned through years of practice and implementation.

Wiesbaden, Germany-based KEGON has mastered the agile methodology, so organizations in search of an agile solution get a partner they can trust. KEGON’s agile coaching & consulting services enable organizations to achieve a higher level of agility through the implementation of agile practices, principles, and values.

Since its inception in 2002, KEGON has made a name for itself in the scaled agile space. From offering strategic management consulting to agile coaching and training, it has helped numerous organizations drive business value through agility.

The biggest wall standing between organizations and adopting an agile methodology is inexperience and unawareness. Numerous large and traditional corporations have much too long processes in turning a concept into a product or service.

They take time to find efficiency and build optimization in their offerings, which can push them back in a fast-paced market. “To be innovative and successful, enterprises have no option but to be quick in responding to the changing industry needs,” says Kurt Jaeger, management consultant at KEGON.

To bring this wall down, KEGON has consult agile frameworks to help organizations bridge the gap between their expectations and goals. Using these frameworks, organizations can change their strategies as soon as a new demand comes. The frameworks help organizations to build a culture of learning, create new strategies at the right time and place, and adapt faster in a volatile world.

Implementing agile practices is relatively easy when a company has a small team. However, when they grow, their workforce widens too. In this case, adopting an agile strategy becomes complicated because there are too many teams using different tools and processes, which impacts productivity and hurts time to market.

The agile frameworks eg. SAFe used by KEGON are easy to integrate even as a company grows in size and number. Their agile practices are based on transparency and alignment while providing principles for continuous improvement.
Whether it’s pharmaceutical, insurance, or automotive, KEGON’s team of experts can help a client build a highperforming agile organization that delivers exceptional results. As the firm with a holistic approach, KEGON can help moving from slow classical silos towards faster value streams. It builds clients’ agility from the ground-up—technology and processes to culture – by scaling and sustaining over time.

While implementing agile practices in an organization with more than 1000 employees, it can be confusing to figure out where to start.

To this, KEGON’s advice is simple: wherever the pressure from the market is coming.

If sales or marketing is suffering due to a lack of collaboration, then start there. If it’s product development that needs speed to market, that should be the priority.

To help organizations adopt agile methodologies, KEGON offers training programs that can educate over 100 people together. They learn to evaluate customers’ demands, their challenges, and how to help them to become faster. After all, the learning curve keeps the agile culture & principles alive, and KEGON makes sure organizations know how to keep up with the market’s demands.
