I completely agree - that's really what I meant by Agile as a philosophy isn't bad - its implementations? Sure.
You hire competent developers that want to do cool things and you give them the basic necessary tools to self organize. You give them sound direction and a reasonable timeframe and they will self organize - maybe have infrequent checkups to ensure nothing is derailing or needs escalation and most projects can be successful with minimum overheads.
- lostcolony 5y agoI describe this as "agile manifesto" vs "agile methodology". The agile manifesto attempted to describe a culture where devs could get things done. All the methodologies are a bundle of useful ideas that came out of people attempting to find a process that fit the agile manifesto (and still delivered what the business cared about), but have been taken by consultancies, stripped of context, and sold as a panacea for what ails a company. It's attempting to treat the symptoms, not the cause; the cause of what ails a company is bad culture, not bad process.
