It’s clear what King Arthur Baking stands for:
“We are bakers, committed now as always to spreading the joy of baking. The joy of being part of a tradition and contributing to a craft. And of course, the joy your cookies, cakes, breads and pies bring to your life and the lives of others. That’s the power of baking.”
Now, replace “bakers/baking” with “makers/making,” and “cookies and pies” with “products,” and you’ll get the gist of Agile.
Indeed, Agile is for makers, not managers.
And the joy of Agile is the power of Agile, not processes, tools, or metrics.
Agile is about the mushy stuff of values and culture.”
—Jim Highsmith, About the Manifesto
So think of yourself as a King Arthur baker. Be a King Agile maker.
If you are a manager, be an enabler, not an enforcer.
Do your part and let good things rise.
