NBUFD for Agile Change

• The concept of No Big Up Front Design is applicable to Agile change management (Design) as well. 

• One view is to have every piece of organizational change in place before the transformation can be initiated / continued. Another and more rational view is to work along the way in each initiative, identify the non value adds and remove them.

• The intent to deploy agile coaches is to ensure changes happen across teams that will meaningfully contribute to and transform the organization in their quest for enterprise agility. The notion along this journey that having a x number of coaches, each with their own view of what Agility means will lead to "Agile Fragmentation" may be ill-conceived because the intent is not to have a centralized control over the experience, rather it is to organically grow the abilities of team and in this the agile coaches support and help in clearing the obstacles via NVA removals.
