A tongue in cheek introduction of a fictitious Agile Framework especially designed to appeal to stereotypical senior management with lofty promises. Then looking back to the Agile Manifesto and the mantra of continuous improvement and collaboration.

2. Get on board with AGILE
AGILE development gives you
the freedom to dictate
requirements and deadlines as
your business needs and gain
huge productivity savings.

3. Is this your organisation?
• Missed Deadlines Customer milestones
missed due to avoidable technical issues
• Cost Overruns Project managers seeking
additional resources or funds to mitigate
unforeseen events
• Difficult Programmers Frequent revision of
estimates and requests to carry out
unnecessary work

4. The framework of choice
• Taking the best of Scrum, Kanban and other
‘non-guaranteed’ frameworks
• Adding strict governance and KPIs
• Short delivery cycles that can be frequently re-
aligned to required milestones
• Simple and quick estimation framework using
patented UKS points (and automatic
conversation to man-hours)

5. The framework of choice
• Proactive monitoring and incentivisation of
team members
• UKS “Digital Board” allows shorter stand-up
• Designed for the Enterprise, unlike competing
frameworks
• Constantly evolving standards (version 2.5 due
August 2015 offers 8% efficiency gains)

6. Roles
• Agility Director Ensures delivery to cost, time
and scope at all times
• Product Manager Ultimate control for the
product and able to specify delivery schedule
• Standard Resource In an AGILE world teams
are cross functional. This makes for easy
resource sharing

13. Snake oil & the good name of “Agile”
• Grand promises and unsubstantiated claims
• Often very professionally delivered,
slick consultancies and nice suits!
• All about the blame game, presumes that
people don’t want to do a good job
• Ignores the complexity of software
• Some good practices might follow but no-one
understands why
• A generation of zombies is born

14. Agile Manifesto
U-Kan-Scrum-gile www.meetup.com/Agile-North-East/
Individuals and interactions over processes and tools
Working software over comprehensive documentation
Customer collaboration over contract negotiation
Responding to change over following a plan
That is, while there is value in the items on the right, we value the items on
the left more.
