Why will Lion eat Grass? Corporate Climate Change!


When a lion cannot find the flesh to feed on, it has no choice but to eat the grass.
African Proverb

Have you seen this story in real life? 

A tale to report.

Once upon a time, in Software service company the rule was to everyone should be a billable resource. There is no bench concept. In a good time, every team member was in demand and they were capable to clock 100% billing.

As an when competition increases there are a couple of more company started entering into the existence.

There was an Agile consultancy farm, they used to support Agile consultancy and training. In good old days, they managed to get 100% engagement from the client. The agile transformation was in the boom. Agile was a silver bullet!

As an Agile implementation got wildfire, there are many agile farms flourished and started providing offering service. Agile cup, agile mugs, agile dresses, etc.

Supply was more than demand, Agile coaches are not able to engage themselves. You need to wear a coat written Agile! that’s it to claim Agile coach!

When the economy becoming tightening...

Business is asking what value Coaches will bring? Sr Agile coach what Value they will bring vs entry-level coaches, there are so many junior coaches, why Sr. Coaches? at the Half price, the team was getting coaching services! why Sr Coaches? somewhere team is asking why coaches, teams are mature and can manage. 

Now, Agile coaches to remain relevant and get billing, Many Sr agile coaches are doing Scrum Master role, Few Agile coaches are playing the role of Project managers, Many agile coaches are playing the role of PMO. Few Agile coaches joined the AI machine learning course. Perhaps this will secure the future!

Whatever require to get billing, Lion has to eat grass.

Nothing awful, when the situation is rough, we have to work out everything which keeps the engine running and bring food to the table...

Have you heard such a tale!! It is just a fictitious narrative, such a condition will never appear ;-)
