Many of us are using agile ways of working. But I still observe several agile myths. In this webinar I will give a list of agile myths and I will bust a few. Is the first product increment an MVP? I will explain the difference between an MVP and a MMP to bust this myth. Scrum is agile, but is agile scrum? I will elaborate on my Bird’s eye view in the agile forest with already more than 70 agile ways of working. Are incremental and iterative synonyms? I will draw a matrix for iterative and incremental and show what delivery methods will fit in each quadrant to bust this myth. Will an agile approach deliver the same results as a waterfall approach? By comparing an agile way of working and a waterfall approach I look at the final product and dive into the number of delivered features to bust this myth too.
