Using the Agile Manifesto to Deliver Change – Part 13

Individuals and Interactions Over Processes and Tools

The Agile Value focus on individuals and interactions removes a lot of the bureaucratic limitations on the developers. Also, it encourages them to interface directly with the Product Owner and Stakeholders. Tools and processes are trivial, and serve only as a means to an end. As long as the development team produce satisfactory work, the way that they get there has no bearing on the process. Plus, encouraging healthy interaction between developers and customers means that the development team have more of an investment in the product.

Working Software Over Comprehensive Documentation

Traditional development environments often has a large amount of paperwork involved with any product request. A request is made, then a product analyst writes a functional specification to detail how the functionality should behave. A developer then writes a technical document to indicate the code changes required to fulfil the functional specification. Only after each department completes their portion, does work begin on a request. Depending on the priorities, a request may not be addressed for months or even years. This generates a large amount of unnecessary paperwork that reduces the of the product development.
