The Agile Manager.Init()

agile (lowercase-a)
adjective
1. Being responsive to changes in the business environment.

Agile (capital-A)
proper noun
1. An umbrella term for a collection of related methodologies including Scrum, Crystal, and Extreme Programming
2. The disciplined execution of a set of best practices in software development.

I'm creating this blog to encourage discussion of management practices that engender or inhibit responsiveness to changes in the business environment. The content will be substantially from an IT perspective, with the realization that the business environment neither begins nor ends with IT.
