On: How to Lead Your Team When the House Is on Fire

I think that almost no one from the community has any hate for "Agile" as in the manifesto. Quite the opposite.

The problem is that the Agile that is pushed in the corporate world is nothing at all related to the spirit of the manifesto.

Management took over to keep control over developers.

So you have scrum, you have scrum masters, product owners, t-shirt sizes poker, ... All of that bringing more stress to devs than having empowered them to be trusted to deliver what the real client wants.

That's why I stated the manifesto here. Because people complain about Agile, but in reality they complain about not being agile.
