🚫 𝐓𝐢𝐫𝐞𝐝 𝐨𝐟 𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐝𝐞𝐩𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐢𝐞𝐬 𝐢𝐧𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐚𝐝 𝐨𝐟 𝐝𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐯𝐚𝐥𝐮𝐞? You're not alone—and there's a better way. One of the most powerful shifts organizations experience with the #LeSS (Large-Scale Scrum) framework is the ability to eliminate dependencies, not just manage them. In traditional scaling models, dependencies are treated as inevitable. We introduce roles, tools, and layers to "handle" them. But what if the real solution is to redesign the system so those dependencies disappear? 🔍 With LeSS, we reduce handoffs, align teams to customer-centric features (not components), and enable true cross-functional collaboration—all of which remove the need for painful coordination mechanisms. 💡 𝐈𝐦𝐚𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐞: - No more dependency boards - Fewer status meetings - Teams delivering real end-to-end value—independently Join me #October 30 & 31 (2 half-day sessions) for a Certified LeSS Basics #virtual workshop, where we'll explore how to: ✅ Organize around value ✅ Remove organizational waste ✅ Simplify coordination through systems thinking Let’s stop managing complexity and start removing it. 🔗 Learn more & register by clicking the link in the comments below ⬇️ #LeSS #Scrum #Agile #OrganizationalDesign #ProductDevelopment #AgileLeadership #CertifiedLeSS #ScrumTrainer #AgileTransformation

Your point about redesigning the system instead of adding more process layers is SPOT ON. Traditional scaling approaches add complexity. LeSS removes it. For anyone considering this workshop - this is the real deal. Learning to organize around customer value instead of technical components changes everything. Your teams will thank you, and so will your customers. Q4 planning season is when organizations realize their current scaling approach isn't working. Who else has experienced that "wall of dependencies" frustration? Let's help more teams break free from coordination chaos!
