Agnostic Agile
The Agile Business Consortium has signed up to Agnostic Agile, a movement that recognises the importance of being agnostic when it comes to agility and that strives to help you attain agility without being locked in to one way of working. This is not trivial in today’s world dominated by frameworks or canned methods.
Further to our own core Code of Practice, we are also committed to upholding the 12 principles of Agnostic Agile.
