What’s all this about then?

He’s not the messiah, he’s a very naughty boy….

Oh, sure, we “do” agile

Get up Stand up

So, a History lesson We are uncovering better ways of developing software by doing it and helping others do it. Through this work we have come to value:

Individuals and interactions over processes and tools

Working software over comprehensive documentation

Customer collaboration over contract negotiation

Responding to change over following a plan

!

That is, while there is value in the items on the right, we value the items on the left more.

Freedom

So where do we go from here?

the basics

1. Orientate yourself within the project

2. Take a small step towards your goal

3. Take stock of what you’ve learned

4. Repeat

avoid the traps

Speak properCommunicate the valuable messages of the agile manifesto to customers & managers, & don’t use buzzwords

Question everything you do as a team

Involve the (whole) team in everything

Call it what you like.
