S02 E15 State of the Agile Manifesto with Arie van Bennekum

55min | 12/12/2021

Description

In 2001, a group of people with all different styles of developing software came together in a cabin in Utah to find commonalities in all their individual styles. They already knew that traditional, waterfall approached project couldn’t cut it anymore, but what would? The Agile Manifesto was written in that cabin. A manifesto that would have a massive impact on the way we develop products.

Arie van Bennekum, part of that group. joins us today to discuss how they got to their agreement in the first place, what he feels is the state of it after 20 years, and how to move forward.

What you’ll discover in this show:

- The manifesto is a fundamental set of principles when working with business agility
- Agility has no end state. But we’re also nowhere near where we could be.
- Pushing the status quo helps to make an agile transformation stick

Speakers:
Arie van Bennekum

Thought leader at Wemanity Group and IFAAI

Arie is a pragmatist who accommodates his pragmatism in structure, discipline and common sense. He is not afraid to enter untrained paths and take risks. He has done this since his first days in health care, later in the armed forces, and he continues to do so today. This has led to his special position as co-author of the Agile Manifesto. In the course of his Agile years Arie has become an expert in the field of business transformations towards Agile on the basis of strategic objectives and link this to very concrete objectives. He focuses on delivering value, bringing efficiency and creating support among stakeholders, through role and chain clarity based on the business model and the work packages.

The intellectual property IATM is basis for this. Arie strongly believes in leading on the
basis of exemplary behavior and from that perspective is also constantly
working on creating/strengthening an Agile (customer-oriented) culture within
Wemanity. Moreover, within Wemanity's culture, there is a strong focus on
continuous development of professionals and organization, optimal performance
based on knowledge sharing and feedback and clear task and division of roles,
for an optimal value delivery to Wemanity's customers.
