Disagree. In one of the companies I worked for. Management decided to adopt safe agile. We had a dedicated agile coach for the whole department. Each team went to learn the safe agile principles and framework. The main focus was how do three teams get more aligned when building a solution: edge software, cloud software, application layer. I can say after 3 months of sprints. The productivity improved, people were happier and now we know which feature is used by whom. The requirements were forced to become clear so it be translated into designs and then dev work with the definition of done. When properly applied with the right intentions it is transformative.
