I’m really not sure what you are basing this on. Agile, as I’m familiar with it is framed in terms of lean management which is a well established approach to running business, exemplified by Toyota. Now you can debate the suitabilities of this and the effectiveness til the cows come home, just as you can with agile and scrum etc but it isn’t accurate to say that there aren’t a lot of businesses that aspire to the lean approach.
- kragen 5y agoI don't think it's fair to say that http://agilemanifesto.org/ http://agilemanifesto.org/ is "framed in terms of lean management", or indeed management at all. While there's nothing making it impossible to organize a company along those lines, you may be interested in https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28677886 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28677886 where I explain why the Agile Manifesto values are deeply opposed to many established company value systems.
