Why - Why use Agile Patterns

Since Agile Patterns are simple, efficient, and engaging to the practitioners, they are very effective at their purpose, that is typically providing a desired, focused, well-define outcome.  Agile Patterns are better, faster, cheaper, and simpler than traditional solutions.  Agile Patterns are used for succinctly communicating ways of doing things in an Agile way.

What - What is an Agile Pattern

A pattern is a discernible regularity in nature or in a man made-construct, or a cyclic repeatable sequence; e.g. template, model, stencil, tessellation, Mandelbrot fractal.

An agile pattern is a simple, repeatable construct that provides a simple solution to a common problem encountered by agile organizations; e.g. Agile Frameworks: Scrum, XP, Kanban, Lean, DSDM, xDD, xUP, SAFe, etc; Agile Practices: pair programming, open space, etc.

Agile Patterns can work independently, or in tandem with other Agile Patterns, or as part of Agile Framework, that has many sets and subsets of Agile Patterns.
