SPaMCAST 557 features our interview with Jorgen Hesselberg. We talked about his book Unlocking Agility, assessing agility, and whether leadership and structure lead culture when adopting an agile mindset. It is a thought-provoking and fun interview. Jorgen’s irrepressible nature shines through even when tackling tough topics!
