The Agile
Manifesto (http://agilemanifesto.org/)
encapsulates the Zen of Agile. By Zen, I
mean essence, basis, foundation, definition, core, etc. In the Agile Manifesto the Zen concepts are: discovery (finding and learning), improvement (making things and processes
better), empiricism (direct
experience), sharing (helping and
learning with others) and of course software
development. The first sentence of
the Agile Manifesto encapsulates all these: “We
are uncovering better ways of developing software by doing it and helping
others do it.”
And please
notice, the Agile movement is now evolving beyond just developing software. It is
going main-stream.
The rest of
the Agile Manifesto, the 4 Agile Values and the 12 Agile Principles, then builds
on these Zen concepts.
FYI – I
will explore these in future posts.
Live Agile
to be Agile.
DONE.
