Agile - What's in it for me?

28 Feb 2009 at 8:29pm 2

Often the term Agile means so many things to so many different people. Business people can think it means that the developers want to "wing it" without any formal planning. Developers can think that it means the business wants them to be constantly at their beckon call, dropping work to create their "latest urgent job" and doing more work with less people.

The truth of the matter is that this is slightly true to a certain point. It may sound to all the agile experts out there that I've been drinking or I don't really understand agile development or project management - trust me, I really grok agile and love living the agile way. My thoughts will become clear.
