Ag leLet’s talk about it!
Agile is a paradigm, Not a dogma!
It is actually meant to make things
easier. Not to complicate them.
Keep on mind that:
Robert Martin
The word "paradigm" means "pattern".
Agile describes a pattern of behavior. Agile is a paradigm.
That pattern of behavior is recognizable on the surface based on behavior.
It does not require you to look into the hearts of those who execute it.
It does not represent a political ideology. It is not a mindset.
I once overheard a young agilista say to his mentor that Agile
was driven by a kind of leftist idealism:
Liberté, égalité, fraternité. This is incorrect.
A team can be just as agile in a deeply command
and control environment.
If you want to know if a team is agile, just look at how they behave.
Are they working in very short cycles (1-2 weeks)?
Are they adjusting course based on short term outcomes?
Are their choices based upon current estimates of business value?
Is their output high in technical quality?
Do they maintain consistent velocity?
These are all aspects of agile behavior.
If you see such behavior, the team is agile.
If you don't see that behavior, the team is not agile.
“Agile describes a pattern
of behavior.”
“A team can be just as agile
in a deeply command and control
environment.”
“If you want to know
if a team is agile, just look
at how they behave.”
We can certainly be
Agile in an Agile
environment!
But…
What about being
Agile in an unagile
context?

Simplicity --the art of maximizing the amount 

of work not done-- is essential.
Follow Wheaton’s Law…
Richard William Wheaton III
(born July 29, 1972)
American actor, blogger, voice actor, and writer.
He is known for his portrayals of Wesley Crusher on
the television series Star Trek: The Next Generation,
Gordie Lachance in the film Stand by Me, Joey Trotta
in Toy Soldiers as well as Bennett Hoenicker in Flubber.
Wheaton has also appeared in recurring
roles as Aqualad in Teen Titans, Cosmic Boy on
the Legion of Super Heroes and Mike Morningstar/
Darkstar in the Ben 10universe.
He has as well regularly appeared as a fictionalized
version of himself on the CBS sitcom The Big Bang
Theory and in the roles of Colin Mason
on Leverage and Dr. Isaac Parrish on Eureka. Wheaton
is also the host and co-creator of the YouTube board
game show TableTop.
A Dick, is a pejorative term for
individuals who are considered
to be rude, arrogant, abrasive,
inconsiderate. In this context, it
can be used interchangeably
with jerk.
HOW TO NOT BE A DICK
a simple guide…
Start
Are you
being a dick?
Don’t be a dick!
Awesome, you’re
making good choices!
Yes
No
Choices
Make conscious choices.
For every decision a customer makes, you
take a bunch of them, so take always time
to do what’s right (Agile).
As part of the digital revolution, you’re
changing the world!
After all, the only way to be right about the
future, is to make the future yourself.
Busy is not equals to productive
Physical work has a clear start and stop point. Cognitive work never ends.
BUSY PRODUCTIVE
VS
Busy is not equal to productive
Physical work has a clear start and stop point. Cognitive work never ends.
Many priorities
Say yes quickly
Talk too much
Multitasking
Respond quickly to notifications
Few priorities
say no (or yes slowly)
Let results do the talking
Focus in a single task
Take time to answer
Identify Team Toxins
They are:
- Blaming/Criticism
- Defensiveness
- Contempt
- Stonewalling
Used frequently they become highly destructive to relationships – both personal and professional.
GOLDEN
“Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.”
PLATINUM
“How you want to be treated is not as important as
how the other person wants to be treated.”
VS
• Use an “I” to explain needs
• Assume your responsibility
• Build a nice culture, appreciate
• Take a break and relax yourself
• Blaming/Criticism
• Defensiveness
• Contempt
• Stonewalling
ANTIDOTES TO TEAM TOXINS
)
Richard H. Thaler
2017 Nobel Prize for Economics
Behavioural science and economics at the University of Chicago
Co-author of the 2008 best-seller “Nudge” has “built a bridge
between the economic and psychological analyses of individual
decision-making,” 
)
Nudge
Is a concept in behavioural science, political
theory and economics which proposes positive
reinforcement and indirect suggestions to try to
achieve non-forced incentives and decision
making of groups and individuals. 
A nudge is any aspect of the choice architecture that
alters people's behaviour in a predictable way.
To count as a mere nudge, the intervention must be
easy and cheap to avoid. Nudges are not mandates.
“By knowing how people think, we can make it easier for them
to choose what is best for them, their families and society.”
Richard Thaler
