Facilitated by Ola M.

Change is constant — but most organizational change efforts still fail because they’re managed like a project instead of a human process. This session looks at how Agile principles can strengthen traditional change management, and how Agile practitioners can become effective change leaders.

We’ll cover recognized change models (including Kotter’s 8 steps and the ADKAR framework), how to sequence change alongside sprint cadence, and how to keep teams engaged rather than change-fatigued during a transformation.

Learning Objectives

Compare traditional change management models with an Agile approach to change.
Learn how to build a change roadmap that respects sprint boundaries and team capacity.
Identify the early warning signs of change fatigue and resistance.
Practice communicating “why” in a way that builds genuine buy-in, not just compliance.

Who Should Attend?

Scrum Masters, Agile Coaches, Product Owners, and Project/Program Managers involved in leading or supporting organizational change efforts, along with anyone who wants to move beyond “just announcing the change” toward actually landing it.

Key Takeaways

A practical change framework adaptable to Agile team cadence.
Techniques for reading the room and adjusting a rollout plan in real time.
