Value Stream Management and Organizing around Value
This paper explores how enterprises can more effectively organize around value streams to improve customer-centricity and business agility. The author presents four key challenges that companies often face when adopting value stream management practices: focusing too much on lean optimization rather than customer-centric opportunities, building new silos after reorganizing around value, oversimplifying and creating large, slow-moving value streams, and underinvesting in essential DevOps practices that enable value stream performance.
