Agile (as practiced today) is the new Waterfall

Naresh Jain comes to similar conclusions to my talk about Agile last year, with a somewhat different angle. In the end, as he says:

Bottom line, Agile is not a Silver Bullet and don’t fall pray to marketing gimmicks. Question dogmatic claims. Adapt Agile to your needs and take baby steps.

I also like his line in the slides: “Agile coaches and project managers are becoming the process police.” Kinda the antithesis of the Agile notion of people over process, eh?

It'll get checked to make sure it's legit, but it's optional.
