But it is a reality we have to live with and for those product development companies going towards several thousands of people in their R&D, it is causing huge problems and pains.

In this interactive session we are going to apply one of the key principles of LeSS: Systems Thinking. Together we will explore one of the main factors of pain in Large-Scale Scrum adoptions. Doing so we'll discover better ways to scale Agile in large organisations without fancy titles, no trains, no layers of management having more business Agility and less parts.
