Argues agile adoption has three concrete stages: the agile ghetto (teams ship but stay siloed), agile despair (mindset work and coaching expose resistance), and purposeful agile (align on a shared dream). Recommends experiments: run visible demos, prototype MVPs at ~0.8, invite all stakeholders to demos (examples show 40–50 people attending), clean managers’ calendars to observe, and ask “what is our shared dream.” Uses a socks exercise to show change happens one person at a time.
