…we are acknowledging that
not everything will work,
some things might break (and
have done so already) nor is
everything complete or
perfect. This is potentially
hard for an organisation that
prides itself on always being
highest quality but by being
agile what we gain is a
chance to learn quicker about
what won’t work - saving
money and improving final
proposition.
