Your last paragraph makes me wonder: are there two sets of people, one of people who perform better under Agile, and one of people who don’t? We acknowledge the above is true for, e.g., work from home, but have many ever taken the time to consider the same might be true for development process? I’ve worked with (and supervised) developers who I’m fine with sending off into their corner to do what they think is best for weeks at a time. I’m confident they’ll come back with something great, more often than not. I’ve also seen developers who I’m not comfortable with sending off on their own for even a day in between daily standups. I wonder if there’s a process that allows to reap the spoils of both types of developers. Naturally, I’d rather have a team of the first type and think hiring those is the best way, but inevitably, some of the second type make their way in.
