Jon Fazzaro"In 2000 a coworker took me aside and showed me his brand-new copy of IntelliJ IDE. 'It's over for us,' he said, 'this thing makes it so programmers aren't strictly necessary, like one person can operate this tool and they can lay the rest of us off.'"

The Agile Trojan War
The Trojan Horse is a story about war; and, in certain respects, that is precisely why it is such a good metaphor for Agile transformations. Agile tends to entail culture clash, a conflict of visions between executives on one side, wanting to make Agile into a Tayloristic intervention, a way to squeeze more blood from the stone of their teams, and the teams themselves on the other, who see Agile as entailing wholesale culture evolution, a transformation that leaders do not get to exempt themselves from.
