In this podcast Shane Hastie, Lead Editor for Culture & Methods, spoke to Johanna Rothman and Mike Grifiths about the joint PMI & Agile Alliance initiative to produce the Agile Practice Guide.\n\nWhy listen to this podcast:\n\n - There is nothing in the PMBOK that says you have to use a waterfall project delivery model\n - If we want to influence the people who hold the hearts and minds of senior management, there is no better way than to collaborate with them\n - The guide reflects the State of the Practice when it was written\n - The prevalence of agile terms in projects, without actually using agile approaches \u2013 the veneer of agile without the substance\n - Defining agile as a mindset based on values and principles rather than any set of practices\n - There are many options for undertaking work; the key is to have an agile mindset about which practices are most appropriate in a particular context and be prepared to change if the chosen practices are not helpful\n\nMore on this: Quick scan our curated show notes on InfoQ http://bit.ly/2xXIMeU\n\nYou can also subscribe to the InfoQ newsletter to receive weekly updates on the hottest topics from professional software development. bit.ly/24x3IVq\n\nSubscribe: www.youtube.com/infoq\nLike InfoQ on Facebook: bit.ly/2jmlyG8\nFollow on Twitter: twitter.com/InfoQ\nFollow on LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/company/infoq\nWant to see extented shownotes?
