Using the Agile Manifesto to Deliver Change – Part 6
Enable the Development Team
The agile team is autonomous and democratic. It is the team members who decide whether the team can work at home, not a manager. Enabling a team is all about trust. Principle 5 covers this. The result of such enablement results in principle 11, optimal design where project members are given the freedom to work as a team.
Freedom is not Given at the Cost of Quality
In Principle 7, the important word is “working“. It does not help to deliver buggy software really quickly. Principle 1 also describes “valuable” software. The second Value is “working software“. Principles 9 and 11 speak of technical excellence, while principle 12 calls on the team to introspect regularly to improve the way they work. This will help developers to maintain pace and sustainability over the long run, which can be very difficult and is expressed in Principle 8.
