Ken Schwaber
„In der agilen Organisation braucht es neue Typen von
Menschen: solche, die auf eine „Bottom-Up-Intelligenz“ in der
Organisation setzen und nicht auf das klassische „Command-
and-Control“. Wenn man an diesen Grundprinzipien nichts
ändert, wird es auch nichts mit der agilen Organisation.“
