the art of giving a shit
Interesting and readable account of one person's experience of approaching leadership as a service to those you are leading.
"The Agile Manifesto paints an alluring picture of workplace democracy. The problem is, it’s almost always implemented in workplaces devoted to the bottom line, not to workers’ well-being. Sometimes those priorities align; the manifesto makes a strong case that businesses’ products can be strengthened by worker autonomy. But they’re just as likely to conflict, as when a project manager is caught between a promise to a client and the developers’ own priorities."
Pretty good article that covers many of the concerns I have with "Agile".
