Here's Why "Agile" Isn't Working For You with Jon Fazzaro

The Agile Within

Unlock the true potential of Agile with Jon Fazzaro, a veteran full-stack software coach, who joins me to dissect the reasons behind its faltering effectiveness in today's corporate world. Together, we challenge the rigidity that Agile methodologies have acquired over time, urging a return to its experimental roots. By listening to our exchange, you'll gain insights into revitalizing the adaptable, learning-centric spirit of Agile, and understand why agility in software development is less about following a plan and more about evolving through continuous learning and adaptation.
Through the lens of personal experiences and discussions on modern work systems, we tackle the tough questions around the value of knowledge work and the counterproductive nature of traditional success metrics. Hear how embracing a culture of small, iterative progress and learning from failures, rather than banking on large, uncertain gambles, can pave the way for more meaningful achievements in the realm of software development. This conversation is a clarion call to foster environments that value psychological safety, where making and learning from mistakes is not only accepted but celebrated, setting the stage for genuine innovation.
