- What's In Store for Agile in 2025?
I should also say at the outset, that while I do write a lot about predictability, I’m terrible at prognostication without data, which means that what I have below is more of a wish list rather than a bold statement about what will happen in 2025. Also, so you know, this is not going to be some crass or trite blog post about how AI is going to change everything about Agile. Yes, AI will have some impact, but I’d be willing to bet that impact (whatever it is) will not be in any area that is widely being talked about now. Without any further adieu, here goes: 1. A continued shift away from prescriptive Agile frameworks. With all due respect to practitioners of Scrum, Safe, etc., those frameworks have had their day, and unfortunately, our industry is no better off (and, in many cases, worse off) than when they first came into prominence. My expectation is that companies continue to drop their investment in those failed Agile experiments and continue to shift toward understanding what drives efficiency, effectiveness, and predictability from first principles. Yes, I am biased here. And yes, I’ve said this before. But I believe 2024 was a sea change in this regard, and I don’t see that trend reversing any time soon. Plausibility : Pretty good. 2. Can we please stop talking about story points? It is 2025, ffs. Everybody and their brother’s neighbor’s dog know that story points don’t work, yet they still seem to be pervasive. Even the person who created story points says don’t use them but somehow, I am still encountering them on a monthly basis. Outside of fixed length timeboxes (see # 1), I believe story points are the single biggest factor that has held Agile back from achieving its full potential. I know, I know, story points are not “Agile,” but pick a team at random that is doing “Agile,” and chances are they are using story points--in one form or another. When the person who was responsible for introducing story points has repeatedly said not to use them, then I think it is time that we should heed his advice. Plausibility : Nil. 3. Can Agile please finally fill its biggest hole? That is, it proves that adopting Agile practices actually improves either an organization's top line or bottom line or both. The problem is that as long as we continue to follow the prescriptive frameworks of # 1, this will be hard to demonstrate. Think about how many billions of dollars have been spent on Agile in the past twenty-ish years. Is there any proof that this investment has provided any real financial benefit? Anecdotally, I would say it has not—which is the fundamental reason why Agile finds itself in the doldrums. As long as Agile continues to rely on financially inefficient strategies like (as mentioned above) fixed length timeboxes, prescriptive roles, and story points (to name a few), then for all intents and purposes, Agile will continue its slow march toward death. What we need to do is be able to prove to CFOs, that any investment in legitimate Agile practices will contribute to a company's overall financial health. To date (with minimal exceptions), this has never been done. Therefore, from a CFO’s perspective, they are thinking, “If the only way I can do this is to do it badly, then I’ll do it badly as cheaply as possible”. Translation: no Agile. I personally am hoping to help move the needle on this, but until we do, I see no hope for Agile. Plausibility : Minimal. Maybe you were expecting something a bit more cheery and upbeat. I’m sorry I couldn’t deliver on that. Having said all of this, however, I still firmly believe that organizations that truly “get” Lean-Agile practices (not the faux ones provided by prescriptive frameworks) will survive, and the organizations that don’t won’t. That will probably take longer than 2025 to play out. But my guess is this is where it starts. On that note, let’s work together to make Agile better for everyone. All the best to all of you in this year and beyond!

Powerful, intuitive software, at-a-glance insights, frequent and seamless upgrades, training, support, and strategic consultation with experienced professionals come at no additional cost - making Spektrix the fastest-growing solution for arts organisations today. Introducing Rita Goodbody and her role within Spektrix Rita joined Spektrix in 2022 as an Agile Delivery Manager during a period of significant growth for the company. When she began, Spektrix had just three engineering teams; today, it boasts eight. Her role is dynamic, with no two days alike, but her overarching focus is on delivering value to end users and customers. Rita’s responsibilities span across two teams, including one focused on architectural and technical long-term vision. She also collaborates regularly with a group of delivery managers, exchanging insights on improving delivery processes and supporting team efficiency. Central to her work is enabling the flow of work, fostering continuous improvement, and providing clarity to stakeholders about delivery timelines. Spektrix utilizes Kanban and Lean practices, emphasizing continuous forecasting to maintain accountability and transparent communication. Tools like Jira and Confluence are integral to their workflow, allowing the team to manage work seamlessly and link delivery metrics with strategic goals. This structure ensures that all stakeholders have a clear view of how individual efforts contribute to larger company objectives. For Rita, the role of an Agile Delivery Manager is about more than just achieving goals—it’s about empowering teams, enabling flow, and making work happen. Background Spektrix began leveraging ActionableAgile Analytics ® in Jira Cloud in mid-2023 as part of their commitment to optimizing delivery processes and enabling their teams to deliver value more effectively. This tool has become a cornerstone of their workflow, helping them align their growing teams with strategic goals and maintain transparency across the organization. The Situation Teams within Spektrix were structured similarly, typically comprising six to nine people with roles including engineers, product owners, delivery managers, tech leads and engineering managers. Delivery teams worked with different focuses—some tackling long-term architectural initiatives, others concentrating on short-term features. This diversity of efforts demanded clear alignment and a reliable way to track progress. Much of the work at Spektrix relied on manual processes, particularly when it came to tracking, forecasting, and providing updates to stakeholders. Delivery managers like Rita spent significant time preparing data manually. "We used to spend hours doing spreadsheets,” she explained. This manual approach involved extracting data from Jira and inputting it into spreadsheets for forecasting and reporting. While effective for a smaller team size, the process became a bottleneck as the number of teams grew. Simple tasks like answering stakeholder questions often required substantial time. Growing Pains: Scaling Teams and Processes As the teams expanded, the inefficiencies of manual processes became increasingly apparent. Delivery managers found themselves struggling to provide consistent updates, and the manual workflows made it difficult to keep pace with the demands of a growing organization. Each Delivery Manager had 2 teams. Switching context from one team to another took time to get everything loaded and ready for the update. On average the Delivery Managers would spend 2-4 hours getting the data right and being able to update all relevant information to reflect the latest progress. It was clear Spektrix needed a way to streamline its processes and reduce the reliance on time-consuming methods that no longer served its scale. Rita reflected on the transition: “We were spending so much time doing manual spreadsheets, updating data, and preparing forecasts. It was taking too long, and as we grew, it was clear something needed to change.’’ Challenges of Growing Complexity The diversity of Spektrix’s teams and their varying focuses further complicated efforts to maintain alignment. Without a unified approach to tracking and forecasting, teams and stakeholders often worked with incomplete or inconsistent information. Rita described the need for better visibility and alignment: “Each team works slightly differently, but we all needed to look at the same information to stay on track and ensure we were delivering value.” This lack of cohesion impacted both day-to-day operations and longer-term planning, underscoring the need for a scalable solution to manage the growing complexity. Implementing ActionableAgile Analytics ®- What happened after? The rollout of ActionableAgile Analytics ® at Spektrix was a gradual but transformative process, beginning with the delivery managers and expanding across teams. The initial goal was to replace the manual, spreadsheet-driven workflows that consumed significant time and effort. To secure approval for the business case, Rita utilized the tool during the free trial period to demonstrate its value. She emphasized that the time savings it provided far outweighed the cost of the tool. Additionally, she highlighted how the team could self-serve and access quick updates at a team level, making the decision to invest in the tool an easy choice. First the teams wanted to make sure they had the same information and results as the manual data. We've always used flow metrics, core to Kanban, but ActionableAgile Analytics ® allowed us to use it more transparently by everyone in engineering rather than just delivery managers with complex and brittle spreadsheets. ActionableAgile Analytics ® gives us more ways to examine teams delivery from different angles with more dynamic and automated views. Starting with the Delivery Managers Rita described how the implementation began with delivery managers exploring the tool together. “We just got together as delivery managers and said, ‘Okay, let’s set this up in our teams. We compared how things worked, ran demos for each other, and started spreading it slowly,” she explained. Initially, delivery managers were the primary users, testing the tool and identifying how best to introduce it to their teams. Teams within Spektrix were structured similarly, typically comprising six to nine people with roles including engineers, product owners, delivery managers, and tech leads. This provided a consistent framework for implementing ActionableAgile Analytics ® while tailoring its use to the needs of individual teams. Building Engagement Across Teams The next step was to share the tool with team leads and engineers, demonstrating how it could help with planning and forecasting. According to Rita, the response was overwhelmingly positive. “The leads were really engaged. They were like, ‘Wow, this is brilliant—we can get information so quickly.’” The adoption process varied across teams. Some quickly embraced flow metrics like work item age and cycle time, incorporating them into daily stand-ups and using them to identify bottlenecks. Others preferred a focus on long-term metrics, analyzing historical data to identify trends and opportunities for improvement. In one of Rita’s teams, the use of flow metrics sparked proactive collaboration. “They were like, ‘Can you call us out when something hits three or four days? We do forget to look at it.’ So I’d flag aging items, and that really helped us reduce cycle times. When you look at the historical data, we went from high cycle times all the way down. That momentum motivated the team,” she shared. Unlocking Time and Focus For delivery managers at Spektrix, implementing ActionableAgile Analytics ® was a game-changer, particularly in terms of saving time. Before, hours were spent manually updating spreadsheets to track and forecast delivery timelines. “We realized we were saving so much time,” Rita explained. “Now, instead of spending Monday mornings buried in Excel, we can use that time for more valuable work.” The shift not only freed up delivery managers but also allowed teams to focus on improving their workflows. Rita highlighted how this shift built momentum. “We started sharing metrics like cycle time with the teams, and over time, they saw real improvements. When you look at the historical data, we went from high cycle times all the way down. That momentum motivated the team to keep improving.” In one of the teams, we went from 16-18 days under 85% confidence level to 6-8 days under 85% confidence in less than 3 months time . See below snapshot. Delivering a Critical Feature—On Time One standout moment came in 2023, when Spektrix faced a tight deadline for an important feature release. Rita and her team were able to quickly identify that the current setup wouldn’t allow them to meet the deadline. “Using the tool, we forecasted that we wouldn’t make it without additional support. We brought in help from other teams and managed to deliver on time,” Rita said. The feature was delivered as planned, sparking applause from across the company. “Everyone was happy and clapping,” she recalled. A Shift in Culture The adoption of ActionableAgile Analytics ® sparked a cultural shift at Spektrix. Delivery managers moved from being gatekeepers of data to enablers of transparency and flow. Teams grew more independent, and shared metrics became a common language. “We started sharing screenshots and updates regularly, whether in chats or meetings. Teams could see their progress, and it created this momentum,” Rita said. “The real magic is when people pull the information themselves. Instead of us pushing it onto them, they’re asking questions, getting curious, and taking action.” Real Cycle Time data from one of the teams as at December 2022 - Prior to using ActionableAgile Analytics ® Real Cycle Time data from the same team as at December 2023 - 8 months following the installation of ActionableAgile Analytics ® Above, we can see the same team's Cycle Time exactly a year apart. By analyzing the data, we can draw the following conclusions: Consistent Delivery in 2023 Compared to 2022 The 2023 chart shows more clustering of cycle times around lower percentile bands (e.g., 50% and 70%) compared to 2022. This indicates improved consistency in delivery times, enabling stakeholders to better predict when work will be completed. Faster Cycle Times in 2023 Median cycle times (represented near the 50% band) in 2023 appear lower than in 2022. This suggests that the team improved their overall efficiency, reducing the time it takes to deliver items from start to finish. Fewer Outliers in 2023 In 2022, there are more visible dots above the higher percentile bands (e.g., 95%), reflecting more frequent long-running work items. By 2023, the team reduced the number of outliers, demonstrating their success in addressing bottlenecks and managing complex tasks more effectively. Increased Work Volume in 2023 While Maintaining or Improving Cycle Time The 2023 chart shows a larger number of data points (and potentially larger dots) compared to 2022, suggesting the team handled a greater volume of work. Despite this increased workload, the team maintained or improved their cycle times, showcasing scalability and adaptability. Summary of Outcomes Significant Time Savings allowing for work on more valuable projects Improved Cycle Times On-Time Delivery for Critical Features Increased Team Accountability Enhanced Stakeholder Confidence What Does the Future Look Like for Spektrix? Establishing Transparency and Collaboration Across Teams Looking forward, Spektrix envisions a future where transparency and flow metrics are integrated not just at the team level but across the entire organization. Rita highlighted a growing need for cross-team visibility, especially as dependencies and collaborative goals become more prevalent. “We’d love to see a dashboard that brings together data from multiple teams in one place,” Rita said. “Right now, if one team’s work blocks another, we have to gather data manually from different delivery managers. It would be amazing to see trends across teams at a glance to quickly understand where dependencies or bottlenecks are happening.” This vision aligns with Spektrix’s efforts to scale their use of tools like Jira and ActionableAgile Analytics ® beyond engineering teams to other areas. As Spektrix explores future possibilities, the balance between automation and meaningful conversations remains critical. While some team members have suggested features like AI-driven insights to identify trends and optimize throughput automatically, Rita reflected on the value of keeping discussions at the forefront. “I love going into the data, looking at the past two weeks, and prompting the team with questions,” she explained. “Why did this happen? Was this good or bad? That conversation piece is so valuable. If we rely too much on automation, we might lose that depth of understanding.” Championing Flow Across the Organization Spektrix plans to champion the adoption of flow metrics and tools like ActionableAgile Analytics ® across the company, embedding these practices into all teams and processes. Rita believes this will help achieve broader alignment with company goals. “At some point, we’ll want to centralize how we use tools across the company, ensuring everyone benefits from the same efficiencies and insights,” she shared. By continuing to foster collaboration, refining their use of flow metrics, and expanding tool adoption, Spektrix is paving the way for a future where agility and transparency drive success at every level.
- 55 Degrees Renews SOC 2 Compliance: Strengthening Our Commitment to Data Security and Customer Trust
55 Degrees is proud to announce the successful renewal of our SOC 2 compliance, reaffirming our commitment to maintaining the highest standards in data security and customer trust. This milestone underscores our dedication to safeguarding customer data by adhering to rigorous security protocols and continuously enhancing our security and compliance program. As a renewed achievement—not our first SOC 2 audit—this accomplishment reflects our ongoing efforts to meet and exceed industry standards, ensuring our customers’ data is handled with the utmost care and integrity. What is SOC 2, and why is it important? SOC 2, or Service Organization Controls 2, is a framework that is governed by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA). With a SOC 2 audit, an independent service auditor will review an organization’s policies, procedures, and evidence to determine if their controls are designed and operating effectively. A SOC 2 report communicates a company’s commitment to data security and the protection of customer information. Improving your security posture SOC 2 compliance exemplifies an organization’s commitment to customer trust and is a major milestone toward improving its overall security posture. With increasing cybersecurity threats and data breaches, it is paramount that organizations prioritize information security and the protection of their systems and data. By undergoing a SOC 2 audit, our controls and processes were validated by a third party who attests to the functioning of the controls relevant to our application. Why did we pursue SOC 2 now? SOC 2 compliance is integral in proving to customers, stakeholders, and interested parties that our organization values their trust and has effectively implemented security controls. At our company’s stage, we realized that it was an ideal time to pursue this as it is important to protect data and mitigate potential security risks early and on an ongoing basis. 55 Degrees’s journey to SOC 2 compliance Compliance Partners The task would have seemed insurmountable without the right compliance partners to guide us on our journey. Some key partners were involved in our SOC 2 compliance journey. Vanta We partnered with Vanta , the leader in the Trust Management space, to help us automate the collection of our audit evidence. Vanta provides us with the strongest security foundation to protect our customer data. Advantage Partners Our audit firm, Advantage Partners , was extremely helpful in creating a seamless audit experience. With their guidance and support, we were able to achieve SOC 2 compliance in a swift, efficient manner. Process While SOC 2 can be a big undertaking, our compliance partners streamlined the process. We leveraged Vanta to integrate our key systems and guide us in implementing policies and procedures to quickly become audit-ready. Vanta gave us the direction we needed to pursue our compliance journey. Advantage Partners then confirmed our audit readiness, and we kicked off our Type II audit. Advantage evaluated the controls we have in place for the audit and opined on their state. Advantage Partners drafted and issued our report shortly after our audit window ended. Timeline One key takeaway is that improving our security posture and achieving compliance is monumental. This can be made easier with the right compliance partners, but it will take dedicated focus and time from your organization. The readiness period can take the most time, but we were able to prioritize compliance to get the audit ready in weeks rather than months. We also found it important to review the audit timeline with Advantage Partners, set an ideal audit date, and then work backward to be ready in time. However, now that controls are implemented and security is a priority for our team, subsequent SOC 2 audits will be even more seamless. Lessons we learned Start the process early. It is easier to implement policies earlier than later, and doing so as early as possible helps you build a more secure organization. Building secure procedures and infrastructure is key to a successful security program. Focus on improving security posture, not checking boxes. Compliance is not one size fits all. Ensure you are spending time understanding the frameworks you’re working towards so you can know how to best comply for your organization. Your entire organization will be involved in improving security and adhering to procedures. Help them to understand how they impact your ability to stay compliant! Security is a continuous project that should be prioritized in an organization. Don’t snooze your alerts - aim to stay at 100% readiness in Vanta all the time! The right partners and tools are key. Finding a compliance management tool like Vanta to guide you through the process makes it much easier to know what to do and do it quickly. Not only does it make it easier to get started, but it makes it (nearly) painless to maintain your audit readiness! Leveling up our licenses in tools like Snyk Enterprise has really alleviated the pain of managing certain aspects of our compliance and providing the necessary proof. Finally, partnering with an audit firm dedicated to your success makes the process much less scary! Make sure you find a firm that you feel comfortable with, and that is comfortable in your compliance management system. You can read more about our trust stance at https://55degrees.se/trust .
