“Resilience is the capacity of a
system to absorb disturbance and
reorganise while undergoing change
so as to still retain essentially the
same function, structure, identity,
and feedbacks.” [Brian Walker, 2004]
13. agile42 | the agile coaching company www.agile42.com | All rights reserved. Copyright © 2007 - 2015.
“Antifragility is a property of
systems that increases in capability,
resilience, or robustness as a result
of stressors, shocks, volatility,
noise, mistakes, faults, attacks, or
failures” [Nassim Nicholas Taleb]

1st Principle: focus on small
incremental changes
Whenever changing from one way of working to another, we
will go through a hybrid situation where the coexistence of
two different ways generates attrition, duplications and other
forms of waste. The awareness of this fact should push us
in delivering changes fast and in small increments…

3rd Principle: decentralize
control whenever possible
Decentralization of control and decision making, reduces
the feedback loops, and enables faster reaction times. It
requires defining goals and constraints to allow for
autonomous decision making.

• Both on the “budget”
level, as well as on the
expected delivery and
preparation levels
• This level of
transparency allows to
build trust between
Portfolio Management
and self-organizing
teams
• Clear Policies
describing the
range of autonomy
the teams have
54. agile42 | We advise, train and coach companies building software www.agile42.com | All rights reserved. Copyright © 2007 - 2014.
• Every team has two “avatars” to
volunteer on upcoming
Opportunities
• The Opportunity Owner will get in
touch with the team to get their
input and enrich the backlog

And don’t forget about
culture and context…
Ok, now you get which patterns can help your organization
and your teams improve their resilience and antifragility so
what do you need to make it happen?
56. agile42 | the agile coaching company www.agile42.com | All rights reserved. Copyright © 2007 - 2015.
5th Principle: make your
culture explicit
Organizational culture exists, whether we acknowledge it or
not, and making explicit allows for better alignment and
context creation
57. agile42 | the agile coaching company www.agile42.com | All rights reserved. Copyright © 2007 - 2015.
“This is how we do things around here…”
Culture is the set of
behaviors that have been
established and accepted
within an organization

“If you can
make culture
explicit, you can
agree where you
stand, and where
you want to
go…”
There are two ways of encouraging behaviours within an organization:
1. Story telling and role-modeling (e.g: empathy and tradition, walk
the talk)
2. Ritualization (e.g: Scrum events, Ritual Dissent, Open Space)
62. agile42 | the agile coaching company www.agile42.com | All rights reserved. Copyright © 2007 - 2015.
6th Principle: create the
appropriate context
Often time we have the instinct to define processes, rules
and even culture, independent of the context in which we
want to apply them… We learned that the context matters,
and can be a great leverage for you to succeed
