Organizations are adopting Agile through a combination of bottom-up
adoption and top-down change. But the reality of Agile adoption has

professionals do not carefully consider and make the right decisions
about where the lines fall between water-Scrum and Scrum-fall, they
are unlikely to realize Agileâs benefits.
