Why Work In An Agile Way?
Why work in an Agile Way? This has been a question I first asked myself as a team member in a Scrum Team. Over the years, I’ve reserved my right to add to, refine and change my answers. The question can be approached from multiple angles. Say from the perspective of being responsive to customers’ needs: “We work in an Agile Way to respond to customer needs, release frequently, get feedback quickly and course correct as required.” Or, from the perspective of optimising a team: “We work in an Agile Way to bring individuals together in a high-performing team.” Or, from the perspective of flow: “We work in an Agile Way to maximise flow and get stuff done” Or, from a commercial perspective: “We work in an Agile way to maximise profit” More recently, I helped a team define this as their reason during their inception: “We work in an Agile way to deliver reliably (we do what we say), predictably (we finish when we say we will) and sustainably (we care for ourselves whilst doing it).” How to connect with AgileDad: - [website] https://www.agiledad.com/ - [instagram] https://www.instagram.com/agile_coach/ - [facebook] https://www.facebook.com/RealAgileDad/ - [Linkedin] https://www.linkedin.com/in/leehenson/
