VP of IT in Software, 10,001+ employees
This is a sad state of affairs, in my opinion.  Though I think the responses do reflect the current state.  I still see most organization doing agile rather than being agile.  

I consider a good number for my teams to be 105%.  I have had teams that have hit this rate for years on end.  Where this isn't happening, the focus should almost always be on management rather than on the teams.

Without a doubt - Technical Debt! It's a ball and chain that creates an ever increasing drag on any organization, stifles innovation, and prevents transformation.
