It's not an Agile Story
The items on the Right Vs The items on the Left!
Individuals and interactions over processes and tools !
Working software over comprehensive documentation !
Customer collaboration over contract negotiation !
Responding to change over following a plan
Although we have not embraced this balance successfully yet, we as an Agile community ‘acknowledge’ the need for one.
That’s progress!
With that HOPE I begin
HERAll representations in this presentation are mostly
alluded to one gender to emphasise on the qualities related to ‘feelings’ which is conventionally referred
as ‘feminine’. However I as an individual do not subscribe to that norm entirely!
!!
All the paintings in this presentation are done by Shilo Shiv Suleman one of the fiercest artist I have
ever known.
DISCLAIMER!
The idea of the presentation is not to let people judge, but use this as a means to better understand
the self via the surrounding !
I could be totally WRONG with my current understanding of certain behaviours and I will
leave that decision to the participant’s discretion
Human fallacy is acknowledged but not dealt with in many organisations. We barely even scratch the surface! !(possible) reasons,
No Tangible immediate results !
Fear of confrontation !
Way too complex !
Social Conditioning !
Individual Process
