Resistance to Scrum adoption can manifest in various ways, including passive resistance, where individuals may not openly oppose the change but fail to engage with the new processes. This can be detrimental as it hampers the overall adoption and effectiveness of Scrum within the organisation.
Active resistance can also occur, where individuals or groups may work against the change, either by undermining efforts or by clinging to old practices. This form of resistance can be particularly challenging as it can create conflict and slow down the transition process, making it harder to achieve the desired Agile transformation.
