Companies who "transform" with Agile–but now ditch Agile–didn't transform at all. They just:
- Signed up for a multi-year-gym-membership plan.
- Didn't show up to the gym to work out.*
- Didn't observe results while staring at the mirror–of course!
- Cancelled the subscription, claiming: "You see? it doesn't work!"
🛋️ "Do NOT count" items:
Renaming roles, renaming divisions, replacing sitting reporting with standing reporting, replacing hours incurred with story-points burned, among other "from-the-comfort-of-your-couch-changes" do NOT count as work out.
🏋️♀️ "Do count" items:
Transcending 'leadership' from controllers to enablers, moving from siloed interests to shared focus, moving from repressing information to flowing information, reducing outputs for boosting outcomes, among other "make-your-muscles-ache-changes" do count.

1. Move "Do NOT count" items from "Done" to "Archived"
2. Move "Do Count" items from "Discarded" to "To Do”
