Why Fluency?
Fluency is a great way to gauge, predict, promote, and actually achieve mastery!
Your benefits from modern agile development come from mastering—gaining fluency in—the craft of business, product, and software development.
A fluency model asks you to choose your target and aim directly for the real benefit that you actually need—rather then some idealised goal of what you should want.
A fluency model encourages you to appreciate and celebrate the benefits you are receiving right now from your in-progress transformation.
A fluency model shows you how to create the practices, learning, and transformational shifts which are proven to take people to their target.
The Agile Fluency Model
The Agile Fluency Model is a fluency model for teams that produce software products in an agile way. It was created by leading agile practitioners working in the field to deliver real products with value.
The model reflects our observations of predictable & measurable signposts that all agile teams mark in their own unique quests for mastery.
Our observations have been validated by 1000's, of practitioners and teams around the world since 2012—through benchmarks, interviews, and other anecdotal research.

Are you ready ...
... to create abundance and transformation in your business?
Start here with the Essentials Gamerunner training, and develop proven ways to effectively lead and coach Agile teams. Or own your best practices as a developer or tester. Finally, learn to apply the Agile Fluency Model in practical and pragmatic ways.
When leadership knows what to invest in business agility, the teams power-up to unlock achievements only available on the next level.
