Had a fantastic chat with @kriscorbus today
which she closed with the question on what we are not doing in all our efforts
to be #agile: I think it's looking empirically at our processes before changing
them. Too much is just copy&paste "if it works over there it must here".

My #agile planning process:
- knowing what the customer needs ⁉️
- knowing my skills and load 💪🏻
- Work on the the top activity based on an educated guess which will most
likely yield the quickest result relative to the current goals. ⌨️

The CSO [Chief Software Officer, U.S. Air Force] signed a Memorandum [...]
regarding the use of #DevSecOps and #Agile and highly discouraging from using
rigid, prescriptive frameworks such as the Scaled Agile Framework (#SAFe).

Replying to @coderbyheart
It even has a nice flowchart on how to detect #agile bullshit:
From the @DeptofDefense comes this great
document on detecting #agile bullshit:
https://media.defense.gov/2018/Oct/09/2002049591/-1/-1/0/DIB_DETECTING_AGILE_BS_2018.10.05.PDF
"... how to detect software projects that are really using agile development
versus those that are simply waterfall or spiral development in agile clothing".
Some takeaways:
"Who here is not working #agile?" 1 in 100+ people raise their hand. "...
Lebensversicherung" it says on their T-Shirt.
One of the big fallacies of #agile IMO: a completed sprint is seen as a
deliverable by itself, sometimes even as the most important one.

Here is something for you #agile practitioners to do in 2018:
Can we have space for people whose energy is drained by all the interaction that
is promoted in all agile methods?
I went to Germany and told the Germans: this #agile thing you are so crazy about
here, is natural for us working in Norway, like
@NordicTweets.
We value teams over individual achievements, let teams decide what to work on.
This creates commitment on all levels.
