Summary

🎙️ On this episode of the Take5IRL Podcast, @Mike and @Jeff dive into a real-world case from the medical device space where a traditionally hardware-focused organization began shifting toward software-driven product development. With teams coming from different backgrounds, they needed a new way to frame work, align mindsets, and actually function as a cohesive unit. Mike and Jeff share how they guided leadership through that transformation, helping bridge the gap between traditional approaches and modern Agile practices. One of the biggest challenges? The team wasn’t getting to done every sprint. Through hands-on coaching, they worked with the team to clearly define what “done” meant in their context, and adapt their processes to fit both their team and the realities of the regulated medical device industry. Tune in to hear how this team moved through the “emotional storms” of change and how consistently getting to done every sprint became a turning point in their success.
