520 |a Written for business professionals and managers, this book explains the principles of Agile, shows why these approaches work, and demonstrates how to use Agile approaches to significantly increase productivity, quality, and customer satisfaction in any industry. It presents a range of proven Agile methods including Scrum, Kanban, Feature Driven Development (FDD) and the Dynamic Systems Development Method (DSDM) in clear business language. The author also devotes a chapter to explaining each of the 12 Agile principles that make these approaches consistently successful, and details how to use these methods to tackle the core challenges faced by every organization. The book concludes by presenting an in-depth case study that compares Agile approaches with traditional approaches for achieving three common business objectives, followed by step-by-step guidelines to make Agile work for your organization, and a range of resources for further reading. --  |c Edited summary from book.
