What a great video to add more layers of confusion to what is actually a very simple idea.
Principles
– 1: The highest priority is to satisfy the customer through fast and continuous software delivery (micro deliveries = micro results)
– 2: Changes of requirements are welcomed even at the end of development. Agile processes take advantage of change as a competitive advantage for the customer.
– 3: Prioritize weekly or biweekly, or monthly delivery. Prioritize shorter time scales. (set a frequency of deliveries)
– 4: Business people and developers should work together daily throughout the project.
– 5: Build projects around motivated individuals. Provide the right environment and support your needs, trust them to get the job done.
– 6: Prioritize face-to-face communication.
– 7: Working software is the main measure of progress.
– 8: Agile Manifesto promotes sustainable development – Sponsors, Developers and users should be able to maintain a constant pace at all times
– 9: Continuous attention to technical excellence and good design increases agility.
– 10: Simplicity – the art of maximizing the amount of work not done – is essential (Less is More)
– 11: The best architectures, requirements and projects emerge from self-organised teams.
– 12: At regular intervals, the team reflects on how to become more effective, then tunes and adjusts their behavior accordingly. (Retrospective / Behavior adjustment)
The punchable face of the main character describes the Agile perfectly. It’s basically pushing out unfinished product and degrading clients/consumers by making them beta testers for free. And of course, the female workers are presented as the face of the agile philosophy, and men as the business old-school opressors. Andf of course, Melanesian islanders are show as white bearded men.
As the person the main character is supposed to resemble, I’m sorry you feel that way. 🙂

Hi. I liked this video of yours. Can I share this to my students? @Mark Shead
this video is disgusting speak up and a little faster and edit out the fuckin audible pauses
Thank goodness they added a 1.75x speed option… Perfect….
This video helps me get an accurate view of agile, thank you from a bottom of my heart.
Thank you very much for helping me out understand what’s the real Agile development. 🙂 subscribed to your channel. 🙂
Thanks for explaining Mark. I see Agile a lot but always saw ambiguous and unclear definitions. I’m understanding now that Agile is a series of principles that values working closely with the customer in implementing continuous updates to best suit the needs of the customer, with added flexibility in the ability to change according to need and accomplished through self-organized teams.
The whole “what sells today may not sell tomorrow” kinda gets me thinking… How shortsighted does a company need to be to choose to work fast instead of great? If you believe your product ‘needs’ to be done today, because a month later it would be ‘trash’… Well that says all I need to know about your product.
Thank you sir. This was clear and efficient.
Thanks, very informative.
