I want to suggest a possible frame for thinking about the future of agility and the place in it of traditional Agile. It’s a sketch – some thoughts that came to me as I spent three hours in the car yesterday. The tl;dr is that I think we’re bumping against the problems of success with what we’ve done – in the domains where Agile practices and methods work, we’re adopting and improving them. Where we get in trouble is the areas where we’re looking to replicate that success in other domains without adapting enough. We’re learning that the thing that works here may not be the thing that works there. Being the best wrestler in the world doesn’t help when you opponent can hit you with an elbow. I’m not sure that the patterns that will result in agility in operations or in decisionmaking will look much like the patterns that result in agility in delivery.
