Cluttered with an army of agile software development evangelists with a confusing array of competing methodologies, digital transformation case studies typically of larger corporations in service businesses like banks and retail giants, big consultancy houses with agility practices pushing out research, books and magazine articles and classical coaches, consultants, and trainers hitching their wagon to the agile train!  

Agility is the ability to adapt to rapidly changing circumstances [VUCA] while out-executing our competition and stakeholder expectations (of customers, employees, vendors, debt-holders/shareholders).  An Agility Operating System is complex which it is very easy to massively over simplify.  The trick is to move through the complexity, revealing the myths, mysteries and magic of agility along the way and getting to the powerful essence of agile leadership and teamwork, from which you can then start building out organizational agility.
