If manager A has a productivity of 2 with traditional methods and 3 with agile methods, and B has 1 with traditional methods and 4 with agile, in some cultures A will now be considered worse than B. There needs to be a shift in culture so that A is now rewarded for a 50% increase not penalised because they are now considered the lesser manager.
