#0075 - Brett Maytom and Michael Kusters - The agile brand has been destroyed by con men and clowns

 In this episode, we discuss the sad state of the agile industry with Michael Kusters and Brett Maytom. We talk about how the agile brand has been destroyed by con artists, life coaches and big management consulting firms. People who provide poor quality advice to clients because they've never been part of a good agile team. We talk about why clients and managers hire people who don't know what they're doing and the damage that two day certifications and the safe framework have done. We discuss the tremendous value that real agile brings and how few people are seeing these benefits today. And we discuss some solutions based on DOJO's and the craft guild system in Germany. And finally we put out a call for a new outcome focused approach that builds on the best parts of lean, agile XP and continuous delivery to help organisations develop high-value products and services.
