I don't disagree with anything you've said. My core point was that process, of whatever form, is right and necessary. I've seen things go wrong due to no process and I've seen things go wrong due to inappropriate process, and any process applied poorly. The process isn't the evil, it is poor leadership, regardless of the process that kills projects. Different projects in different industries, with different software IC contributor types calls for different leadership ... and I've used Scrum and others successfully as tools in that leadership. Blaming tools (like scrum) or any tool blaming I feel is immature and scapegoating. Granted my original post was a touch inflammatory, partly out of frustration. I made my living repairing under performing teams and good processes top to bottom are the number one thing I've found that stabilises things and turns it around.
