This Coursera assignment depicts the usage of Mindmapping as a tool for design thinking for a problem – AGILE Implementation Challenges

Core Challenges in

Implementing AGILE in a

Matrix Organization

Challenge –

Implementation of AGILE

practices in a Matrix

organization

Rational – Misconceptions

about AGILE are prevalent

in a traditional

organization. Employees

have different mind

blockages. This exercise

helps to understand those

and come up with a

strategy

Selection – In our highly

matrixed organization,

with traditional IT,

changing mindset is

difficult

Application – We did this

exercise to understand the

key concerns, like adapting

to change, availability of

business for quick POC and

so on. It was a session with

business and IT leaders

Insight – Every

participant were asked to

state the issue with AGILE

manifesto, it was mapped

to central idea.

How we Did it? –

Assimilate the central and

tertiary ideas and map

them. Look at

correlations and concerns

and address them

WHAT IS

In this part the teams mind mapped the main

issues. The central of that being business was not

accepting change, which was due to risk in the

well established ways of working, inducing more

cost and time to perform the work.

WHAT IF

In this section we presented the team with a

comparison in a brainstorming session as to what

will it look like if we had new softwaresvwhich

allowed to save time and money. Also the

business did a competitive analysis of where they

are falling behind in the market and come up with

a roadmap.

WHAT WOWS

While immediate changes to softwares and

upgrades seemed a great idea along with

automation, but disrupting the business had

customer impacts leading to legal and

compliance impacts

WHAT WORKS

A systematic planned replacement / upgrade of

the softwares, with proper OCM along with a IT

and Business joint team to look at each

implementation problem will help getting the

teams on board. Also leadership level change was

desired
