After a decade of working worldwide with large product groups in their adoption of LeSS (Large-Scale Scrum), organizations are starting to realize that the main goal of LeSS is not to enable traditional big groups to "meet their commitment" more efficiently. Then what is it?

In this talk I'll share stories of descaling with LeSS, and making structural change happen.
