    The recommendations look good, maybe a bit too much focus on models, i.e. scrum. My view is not to constraint the organization to a specific model but focus more on communication and agile strategies. I find a learning culture with a top-down, bottoms up open communication helps an organization to effectively manage during turbulent times as well as during growth periods. It generates energy within the organization to create and innovate thus leading to a successful outcome.

      I agree.with you Ramzan apart from the Scrum Model. I didn't see that is cited as reference but a baseline from which Agile has been developed. And It has better specified that Agility.is not Agile.
