Discussion on Growth in world of Agile
In 2008, software developers still debating among themselves as to the exact methodology for accomplishing this, and the right label for it. But there was enough common ground to suggest that they had come up with some fundamental principles about teamwork and getting things done in a way that was both more productive in terms of outcomes and more satisfying for the participants.
At the time—2008—most of the instances of this different way of working were occurring in software development.
We have started from the below -- And at the time now --
“Agile only works in software” Agile is spreading to everything
“Agile doesn’t scale” Agile can scale without sclerosis
“Agile can’t handle complexity” Agile can handle complexity
“Agile isn’t reliable” Agile can be fail-safe
“Agile doesn’t last” Agile does endure: we found examples where Agile management had been going strong on for 10-15 years
Agile is necessary but not sufficient for the human-centered corporation. In effect, Agile is not, and does not pretend to be, a panacea. Agile is necessary but not sufficient for the human-centered organization. The point is that without Agile, human-centered organization is not possible at all.
