Ron, if the word Agile were removed, would you still be opposed to the idea of transformation?  

 Personally I like the concept of transformation. It is about intent. It is about moving, transitioning, from a state of dissatisfaction to one of satisfaction—in most software businesses from a culture of fear, sadness, distraction and struggle to one of courage, kindness, engagement and effectiveness. This is very different to adding processes or practices to our existing way of doing things. 
 

 If there's a difference between adoption and transformation I think that's what it is: intent. Adoption is safe, but burdensome. Transformation is risky, yet creates a lightness of spirit. Adoption holds on, transformation lets go.
 

 Michael, you asked for a single slide. I saw that as a challenge :) I came up with this http://t.sidekickopen25.com/e1t/c/5/f18dQhb0S7lC8dDMPbW2n0x6l2B9nMJW7t5XX43Mq94vVd_-S02lqB7pW4r64V67lZ_8Bf1f4B6j04?t=http%3A%2F%2Fbusinesscraftsmanship.com%2Fimg%2Fadoption-transformation.png&si=4690409510404096&pi=ac1ddde1-3122-4436-e8c5-9c8fb04b64bb.
