Once Upon a Time in Agile
summary
Argues that teams must discover and own their process rather than copy others, showing a simple experiment where a workboard with three columns (to do / doing / done) lets a team spot bottlenecks and iteratively add a demo'd line, which reduces integration pain and improves retros. Uses the diffusion curve numbers — 2.5% innovators, 13.5% early adopters, 34% early majority — to explain pervasive fear of change, and contrasts imposed process with context-driven structure that actually works.
