How what we do today connects us to where we want to be tomorrow?

Bottom-Up scaling approach by prioritizing adaptiveness by giving their teams autonomy They work out their own goals, processes, and mechanisms to achieve the goals.

• Get leadership buy-in and provide clear business goals
  • Have a simple hierarchy that is easy to understand and clearly links specific tasks at the dev level to larger goal
  • One well-known company that has really exemplified structural agility is Spotify. Spotify lets its people organize themselves into groups organized by shared objectives (squads), work environment (tribes), skills (chapters) and interests (guilds).
• Support autonomy, encourage and empower teams to create their own way of working to deliver value and met goals
• Encourage collaboration
• Standardise only what is important

Current problems:
