Is Agile like No-Huddle?

Posted by Mike on May 28, 2009

If you are an industry underdog, then:

• “If you’re outmatched by the competition, isn’t it silly not to take a chance?”

If you are the niche leader, then:

• “Right now, great teams (such as the Colts and Patriots) use the no-huddle selectively, as a way to maximize their dominance.”

Hmmm…  Is agile software development, kinda like the no-huddle offense?

• “Why not put together a lighter, better-conditioned offensive line and a radically simplified playbook and see what happens?”

Perhaps smaller teams in coordinated efforts will improve speed to market?

• “The strategy that’s right for heavyweights has nothing to do with how welterweights should fight.”

Something to aspire to:

• “Generally, he’s doing so much more with so much less.”
