Communication and organizational abilities > development methodologies.

I will die on this hill.

Dysfunctional organizations will not be saved by Agile. It seems to be a common theme that Agile has become like violence: If it ain't working, you aren't using enough of it/using it right.

Meanwhile, organizations that have excellent communication and are well organized would more than likely produce quality software regardless of the development methodology.


So he wants to do an inverted No True Scotsman, where he handpicks successful examples to say that they're doing Agile correctly.
