Don’t be fooled by this necessarily process-centric treatment of FDD, XP, and Scrum. With any of these methods you can go through all the iterative motions and still find that:

People serve the process, not the other way around.

The product is driven by the loudest internal voices, not the emerging needs of actual customers.

Lots of work gets done without the end product ever being used for real.

Changes in direction cannot be contemplated, let alone accommodated.

On its own, process gets you only so far. If the aim is to be Agile, the Agile values need to be evident. Technicalities aside, if it’s working neither for the team nor for the customer, call it something else!

Agile has been and still is a game-changer. It has legitimized evolutionary delivery, wresting control of swathes of the software industry away from a plan-driven style of project management that was often ill-equipped to deal with uncertainty. No self-respecting Kanban practitioner can afford to ignore it.
