If you’d like to do more development in this style, but don’t have the agreement of the rest of the organization, I’d suggest one of two approaches. Either convince them that it is worth trying on a few features, the set of work planned for an upcoming quarter, or the work being done by one specific development team or alternatively go ahead and do it behind the scenes.

The first path is nice, because you can be open about only building the full plan for each small release, and hopefully everyone will agree it is working great. The second path is more complicated. You’ll have to have a larger release planned, with release dates and a committed set of features. You can then implement it in small pieces, building and releasing each phase completely behind a flag, and never shipping anything to the real users until the end. That removes many of the benefits, but it can get your developers used to working in this mode and produces a more stable result because each phase had to be shippable. It also gives you the option, and multiple points in the development process, to ship a limited version of the full project, if you can convince your stakeholders it is valuable at that time.
