 Overview

2. Communication Strategy
3. Channels of Communication and Implementation Plan
4. Evaluation Plan
 Education Strategy
This strategy would be implemented in three phases.

1. Identify my audience:
My first action would be to identify which team would transition to Agile with
more ease and less disruption to business operations within the department.

2. Advocate for a transition to Agile:

My next line of action would be to advocate for a transition to Agile through an
interactive session with both agile and non agile teams.

3.Curate a "Becoming Agile " training program:

This third and final phase will be a hands on realistic training approach where
the team will be taught with implementable lessons to understand Agile
principles, values, tools and skills. It will be interactive and practical.

Communication strategy
The goal here is to effectively
enlighten the Human resource
department on Agile
methodology; its benefits and
to guide the team on adopting
Agile practices.
Weekly webinars:
This will include notes, articles and links to videos
on different lessons on transitioning to Agile. The
team will also be given different tasks based on each
lesson learned so that they can implement these
agile skills in their daily operations.
Channels
Mobile Communication Platforms:
of Team members would take advantage of the already existing
mobile communication platforms and devices for daily
updates and enquiries. We would also transition to scheduling
communication meetings within the Agile framework I.e scrum events.
and
implementation Physical Interactions:
plan.
These would be would be in lean coffee style, giving team
members the opportunity to freely discuss whatever topics
they find interesting or have challenges with. This also fosters
the Agile values being taught and enables real life practice.
Monthly reports/Newsletters:
These reports would highlight areas of interest for that sprint so as to
prepare the team in advance on topics of concentration and also provide
information on the values gained within the previous sprint.
 Evaluation Plan
The department will be evaluated with the Tuckman's different stages of development I.e
Forming, Storming, Norming and Performing.
A velocity chart would be used to track the rate of progress and identify areas of improvement.
The metrics of success would include:

01
Other non Agile departmental
managers enquire on the
possibility of their department
adopting Agile practices because
of impact on implementing Agile
practices on the HR department
02
An increase in the number of
individuals in the HR
department actively involved
in the training program.
03
An increase in the number of
team members organically
transitioning in a progressive
manner to the performing
developmental stage
