Beyond Agile
The structure of this post was explicitly inspired by the Agile Manifesto, particularly by its use of the prioritizing “over” instead of the oppositional “against.”
I am attempting to achieve a similar result using the term ‘beyond.” My natural tendency is reactive: criticizing the way things are in order to validate the future I want to create. I am trying to shift to a more redemptive mode: honoring what has come before in order to fulfill and complete it.
Here’s my current list. Would love to hear your suggestions for expanding or improving it!
