Do Large-Scale Agile Frameworks Encode Socio-Technical Resilience?

Authors: Chukwudi Uwasomba, Helen Sharp, Tamara Lopez, Michel Wermelinger, Advait Deshpande, and Peggy Gregory

Abstract
Large-Scale Agile Frameworks (LSAFs) are widely used to coordinate agile transformation beyond individual teams. They are often associated with organisational adaptability, yet whether their formal guidance encodes the capabilities associated with socio-technical resilience (STR) is unclear. Drawing on Hollnagel’s resilience potentials, this vision paper presents observations from an initial investigation of how resilience-relevant capabilities are represented in formal LSAF guidance. These observations indicate a potential resilience blind spot in LSAFs. The paper identifies opportunities for further empirical work on LSAFs and resilience, and on how organisations supplement LSAFs with resilience-oriented practices.
