According to an Allied Market Research study, \"63% of respondents stated the failure of agile implementation in their organizations.\" The problems with Agile start at the top of most organizations with executive leadership not getting what agile is or even knowing the difference between success and failure in agile.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAgile transformation is a journey, and most of that journey consists of people learning and trying new approaches in their own work. An agile organization can make use of coaches and training to improve their chances of success. But even then, failure remains because many Agile ideas are oversimplifications or interpreted in an extreme way, and many elements essential for success are missing. Coupled with other ideas that have been dogmatically forced on teams, such as \"agile team rooms\", and \"an overall inertia and resistance to change in the Agile community,\" the Agile movement is ripe for change since its birth twenty years ago.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\"Agile 2\" represents the work of fifteen experienced Agile experts, distilled into \u003ci\u003eAgile 2: The Next Iteration of Agile\u003c\/i\u003e by seven members of the team. Agile 2 values these pairs of attributes when properly balanced: thoughtfulness and prescription; outcomes and outputs, individuals and teams; business and technical understanding; individual empowerment and good leadership; adaptability and planning. With a new set of Agile principles to take Agile forward over the next 20 years, Agile 2 is applicable beyond software and hardware to all parts of an agile organization including \"Agile HR\", \"Agile Finance\", and so on.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eLike the original \"Agile\", \"Agile 2\", is just a set of ideas - powerful ideas. To undertake any endeavor, a single set of ideas is not enough. But a single set of ideas can be a powerful guide.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Cliff Berg, Kurt Cagle, Lisa Cooney\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1119799279\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781119799276\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Wiley\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/09\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 432\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.20lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 5.90w x 1.00d","brand":"Cliff Berg","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44047390638335,"sku":"9781119799276","price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_8d8326b8-0d9a-43af-b969-ef772c9a26d3.jpg?v=1684989936","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/agile-2-kurt-cagle-9781119799276","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
