Abstract

Adopting Agile takes courage, perseverance, and continued reinforcement. To meet these needs, a community of Agile Coaches organically emerged at Capital One to provide support and mentoring for projects and organizations seeking to adopt Agile. The community has evolved into an influential body of change agents, which routinely meets to address team or organizational initiatives in Agile projects across the enterprise. By creating an environment where true community can exist and grow, we have added sustainability to our Agile adoption processes and enabled continuous innovation of practices and principles.
