Companies analyzed n = 76

a . Benchmark companies

n = 17

Commentary

— As a benchmark we looked at 17 large ( min . 4,000 employees ) and high-profile software companies

— Agile maturity in leading software companies is very high , though a similar level can also be found in other industries ( e . g ., ING , Roche )

— We compared their Agile maturity with the DAX40 [ 1 ] and 20 additional large private corporations from various sectors

— For all companies , we reviewed the following figures : — # of employees — # of employees on LinkedIn — Share of employees on LinkedIn

— # of Scrum Masters , Agile Coaches , and employees with ‘ Agile ’ in their profile

— Various ratios have been analyzed

— We determined that the best proxy for Agile maturity is the sum of the share of Scrum Masters and Agile Coaches
