If everyone is adapting to it this may work. What I have seen in companies is that the devs suddenly have to do scrum but everybody else in the company does business as usual.

In my current company we did scrum training a while ago and not even the dev managers showed up. And it shows when you talk to them. They have no idea what agile really means other than sprints and "commitments". So instead of being an environment where everybody respects each other it has turned into a pressure cooker for the devs.

yeah it’s complete buyin from senior execs to business leaders, to business side employees who are tasked with being product owner. no such thing as a tech lead, organization got flattened out etc.
That's how an agile introduction should be done but almost never does.
