Oh, look. Another PMP proponent who didn't _WANT_ any agile practice success rushing to quote everyone who has reflected on the fact that it isn't perfect. This guy kills his credibility with the "let's hold a rave on the grave of Agile, I'll bring the Molly" attitude.
Also, he clearly never learned the secret sauce of "agile" that Scrum and modern proponents only pay lip service to because it doesn't "sell well": Fucking. Technical. Practices. I've spent over a dozen years now on teams that focused on a.) pair programming b.) test coverage and testability c.) CI (actual CI on one branch - not GitFlow B.S.) and d.) Close customer involvement. We shipped high quality, low bug software that made money for the businesses. Teams that fail to learn technical excellence leave 75% of the value of "agile" on the table, and 9 times out of 10 it's the fools in suits that won't 'let' them do it.
As far as I'm concerned, big organizations can go to hell & keep failing over and over. As software becomes more powerful, 'we' don't need them: http://allankelly.blogspot.com/2015/10/software-has-diseconomies-of-scale-not.html http://allankelly.blogspot.com/2015/10/software-has-disecono...
