Agile Software Development: The People Factor

Overview Over recent decades, while market forces, systems requirements, implementation technology, and project staff were changing at a steadily increasing rate, a different development style showed its advantages over the traditional one. This agile style of development directly addresses the problems of rapid change. To paraphrase one developer, "A small, rigorous methodology may look the same as an agile methodology, but it won't feel the same." The agile group concept grows to span teams, organizations, and other working relationships. It is very difficult for agile people to function well in a rigid organization - and vice versa.
