Postscript: The doom of Agile
A post script to my last blog entry (“SPA London, Tom Gilb and the doom of Agile”) generated some comments and a couple of private e-mails. I think Mark is right when he commented : “they are 'fads', the hope is they will just become nameless best practices”. Many of the Agile practices were already best practices in places, but until they were named, publicized and, yes, hyped, few people knew of them. Have a look at EPISODES from 1995 , thats 4 years before “XP” and 6 years before “Agile”. Its documenting best practices.

I’ve finally, about 6 months after everyone else, got around to reading the Software Engineering Institutes report on CMMI and Agile. Firstly CMM(I) was taken to be a methodology when it was a model. CMM(I) doesn’t tell you what to do, it allows you to evaluate your capabilities. Entitled “ CMMI or Agile: Why Not Embrace Both! ” the report argues that CMMI and Agile are not only compatible but complement one another.

  • The final sustainable edge
    At the risk of boring my readers with a third entry on the subject of this book I think it deserves a wrap up - and a slight correction to some of my initial comments. (See The books central argument is that sustainable competitive advantage (to use a loaded term) is only achievable by companies that can adapt and change to take advantage of changing markets and environment. Problem is, it is incredibly I’ve finished reading “The Only Sustainable Edge” by Johns Hagel and Seely Brown . See 20 August , and 18 August .)

  • Knowledge based product development
    Today is my birthday, I always like where possible to take the day of work and do something enjoyable. One of things is allowing to his finish reading my latest book. I normally have two or three books go at once, usually a novel, something serious and perhaps another book which I wish I had time to read. This time I’m at home taking it easy, catching upon reading and writing. I've commented here before that I have recently become a Product Manager - when I say recently it was almost six months ago now.
