This document discusses how organizations can grow to become more agile. It focuses on four levels - individuals, teams, Scrum Masters/Product Owners, and the organization as a whole. For each level, it provides examples of initiatives that can be taken including training, coaching, facilitating reflection, and fostering communities of practice. The goal is to progress from initially installing agility to eventually perfecting agility through continuous improvement. Key aspects discussed include developing an agile culture and mindset, promoting intrinsic motivation, leadership as a distributed trait, and fostering alignment through vision and sensemaking.
