Scaled Organizational Transformation

Context

The client started in 2020 a major change program, through an agile transformation initiative which started at group level. The aim was to increase their overall business agility by making business and IT act as one team, increase the autonomy and generate an end-to-end responsibility to jointly deliver high quality solutions and adapt rapidly to fast changing customer expectations.

Using the SAFe framework and with the objective to increase the overall agile maturity across all the IT teams, including the leadership to middle-management teams, the client decided to partner with Wemanity to underpin the regional transformation endeavours. Working closely with the CIO and the IT Director, Wemanity focused on the Data Value Stream with 100 people initially organized in skills silos and project mode.
