🔮 Where Do We Go From Here?

If you’ve been following my previous episodes you know I rarely talk about the future. Today, I’m turning my eyes forward to something many others also have had their take on:

What’s next for Agile?

The Future Needs Less Hype and More Heart

Agile isn’t the shiny new toy everyone wants to play these days. In the last few years, we all have witnessed how heavyweight frameworks like SAFe ballooned, meetings multiplied, and buzzwords grew faster than many actual growth startups. I’ve seen Agile used as a silver bullet, as a scapegoat, and as coverup for traditional command-and-control cultures. And yet, I keep seeing something powerful in teams that decide to go back to basics, measure what really matters, and put learning and customers above process and noise.

The future of Agile certainly won’t be verified by certifications or scaled methodologies. It’s going to be shaped by how we bravely return to why we embraced Agile in the first place: to deliver real value, learn quickly, and create human-first cultures where teams actually want to show up every day to put some good work on.
