Agile In The Wild
Agile In The Wild looks to explore the different ways to view being Agile. No experts, just expertise and a curiosity about uncovering new ways to see and to be Agile.
From before Darwin, adaptive complex systems have existed in the struggle against volatility, uncertainty and confusion. The show aims to look at Agile in different ways to help support the perspective that the world has been Agile for a long time and we are just catching up! From recovering from great tragedy to how we play video games or even in the stories we are told, Agile has been a measure for how things around us evolve.
Anything and everything can be a topic to relate to how to see and be Agile. As it says in the Manifesto, we are uncovering better ways and part of what we want to do is shift fixed mindsets on what Agile is to what it can be.

The HOW Of Your Agile: Does it matter how you learned about Agile?
A thought exercise with Patrick Norton, we discuss whether it matters HOW the people who are charged with mentoring and coaching an Agile mindset come into Agile.
Over the course of a few decades, we have met many people who have been hired to support Agile as a way of working. My belief is that it is a multi dimensional way to approach work, and this, takes someone with experience to really move the ball beyond doing Scrum et al. As with anything, people have different stories on how they came upon it and why they chose this path. I have often wondered how important that is for what they are trying to accomplish with teams and organizations.
