Most Teams Fail by Ignoring Feedback
Teams struggle not from lacking frameworks, but from ignoring feedback. Success depends on acting on signals, fostering safety, and empowering real …
TL;DR; Relying on frameworks alone will not change your team culture; the main barriers are existing habits and lack of true commitment. Real transformation requires a clear vision, visible leadership support, and active involvement from everyone to identify and address obstacles. As a development manager, focus on building shared understanding and genuine engagement rather than just rolling out new processes.

If you’re waiting for a framework to shift your culture, you’re already on the wrong path.
The biggest obstacle to change isn’t lack of knowledge—it’s inertia. The culture and process you already have are your biggest constraints.
That’s why real change starts with a vision. Not just a buzzwordy slide deck. A vision that sets direction without prescribing how. One that empowers the people doing the work to identify what’s in the way of value delivery.
Then you need public, top-down commitment. If leadership isn’t visibly in, the change dies quietly.
And no, posters and roadshows won’t cut it. Get everyone into a room. Teach them theory. Help them see the system they’re in. Then have them tell you what needs to change.
Change isn’t a comms strategy. It’s a coalition of action.
