Editor's Notes

  • #2 The purpose of the Agile Business Consortium is to lead, promote and enable business agility – worldwide. The Consortium believes it’s time now to go beyond Agile software development and Agile project and programme management. Our mission is to enable Business Agility in the public and private sector alike, and we’re busy developing content and partnerships to help organisations develop Agile Culture and Leadership, Agile Enablement and Governance, and Agile Strategy and Portfolios.
  • #5 What is the Agile Business Consortium? Genesis as DSDM Consortium, leading early development of “lightweight methods” and signatory to Agile Manifesto. Launch of AgilePM in 2010, and re-brand in 2016.
