Why have we started our Agile Transition? – Strategic Perspective

o Change is the only constant in Digital Ageo Reduce time to valueo Need to manage large scale implementation projects

Page 8: Agile @SAP Why and How?

Why have we started our Agile Transition? – Project Perspective

o Stay closely aligned with business users throughout development cycleo Create impact by focus on business value tangible for end userso Be successful by “divide and conquer”- approach results in a smaller scope per

iterationo Avoid the “acceptance test surprise”

Page 9: Agile @SAP Why and How?

How do we approach the Agile Transition?

o Initiate the mind-shifto Make start not dependent of too many prerequisiteso Trainingo Coaching

Page 10: Agile @SAP Why and How?

Mind Shift is essential to the Agile Transition

o We need to replace the Plan / Build / Run silos by a highlycollaborative environment

o We want to put the business value into the center ofour efforts

o We don’t want Build to be only the receiver ofrequirements

o We don’t want Run to be the receiver of Buildoutcome

Page 11: Agile @SAP Why and How?

Training efforts are focused on How-To Dimension

o Initial generic content on e.g. SCRUM, Jira etc. is leveraged as eLearningo How-To Dimension always has ‘true’ teams in its center

o How to break down the Product Vision into product roadmapo How to write User Storieso How to run SCRUM eventso Team norms and team mechanicso …

o Training sessions consist ofextensive breakout for practicing content

locationso Establishing an Agile ready portfolio processo Evolve Agile project status reportingo Etc.
