Agile Equals Chaos? What Agility Really Means, From Toyota to IT

From the outside, agile software projects often look like chaos: sticky notes, daily stand-ups, sprints. But agility has very little to do with a lack of planning. In this video, I show you what agility really means, from Toyota and lean production via the Agile Manifesto to Scrum, Kanban and modern product development in IT projects.

In this video, you will learn
Where agility actually comes from (Toyota, lean, kaizen) and what software development adopted from it
The difference between a classic waterfall project and an agile approach
What the Agile Manifesto really says, and what people keep getting wrong
How Scrum, Kanban and others translate agility into practice (sprints, backlog, reviews, retros)
Why agile means regular planning with feedback, and why it never meant having no plan
Typical anti-patterns in companies: cargo cult Scrum, ticket shuffling, "we are agile, but..."

Who is this relevant for?
Managers, product owners, project managers and developers
Companies that want to work in an agile way without ending up in chaos or micromanagement
Anyone who wants to understand agility beyond the buzzwords

If you have had enough of Scrum certificates without results and want to know how agility is really meant, this video is for you.
