A rose by any other name would smell as sweet
As our only constant is change, the Agile value – Responding to Change over following a plan was written for our times! Being agile is a way for us to respond to change — in many cases, to lead change – one step at a time. As J.C. Maxwell said, “The future belongs to the curious. The ones who are not afraid to try it, explore it, poke at it, question it and turn it inside out.”
Steve Denning declared in a recent article Why The World’s Most Valuable Firms Are So Agile that “although Agile methodologies can be perceived as problematic, the world’s most valuable and fastest growing firms are demonstrating on a daily basis that Agile mindsets and principles are enjoying astonishing success.”
In a world full of frameworks, jargon and kool-aid it’s good to remember that the vibe of Agile is found in our minds – and in our hearts. It is a mindset to find better ways of working – for us, and those we work with. Individuals and organisations with an agile mindset, values and culture have the ability to thrive and adapt no matter what the future holds.
AgileAus24 is being held on 12-13 August 2024 in Melbourne. There are so many Vibey talks I am looking forward to including – Quinton Quartel‘s keynote on Fast Agile; Julia Steel on The importance of thinking and being Agile not just doing it; Nick Roder and his nephew Caidyrn Roder on Paramedicine – like agility – is a team sport.
