Agile is Dead, Long live agile development

Agile Manifesto

Values

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.

Principals
We follow these principles:

Our highest priority is to satisfy the customer through early and continuous
delivery of valuable software.

Welcome changing requirements, even late in development. Agile processes
harness change for the customer’s competitive advantage.

Deliver working software frequently, from a couple of weeks to a couple of months,
with a preference to the shorter timescale.

Business people and developers must work together daily throughout the project.

Build projects around motivated individuals. Give them the environment and
support they need, and trust them to get the job done.

The most efficient and effective method of conveying information to and within
a development team is face-to-face conversation.

Working software is the primary measure of progress.

Agile processes promote sustainable development. The sponsors, developers, and
users should be able to maintain a constant pace indefinitely.

Continuous attention to technical excellence and good design enhances agility.

Simplicity-the art of maximizing the amount of work not done-is essential.
The best architectures, requirements, and designs emerge from self-organizing
teams.

At regular intervals, the team reflects on how to become more effective, then
tunes and adjusts its behavior accordingly.

Agile is Dead

Agile is Dead ¢ Pragmatic Dave Thomas » GOTO 2015
The death of Agile - Allen Holub

Agile has been built into a proper noun. Consultants sell a sort of cargo cult.
Agile development requires a complete change in corporate structure. The most
important part of the agile manifesto is the values and the processes, while
important, are to support the manifesto. Agile development needs to be process
second to the people.
