Clean Agile: Rediscovering True Agility

? Clean Agile: Rediscovering True Agility ??

Agile is one of the most discussed topics in software development, but do we truly understand its essence? In Clean Agile, Robert C. Martin (Uncle Bob) takes us back to the roots of Agile, sharing not only its principles but also his personal disappointment with how Agile has taken a different direction than originally intended.

Some key insights from the book that really caught my attention:

?? Behind the scenes of the Agile Manifesto – The book provides a fascinating look at the history and original intentions behind the Agile Manifesto, showing what Agile was meant to be versus what it has become.

?? Uncle Bob’s disappointment – Over the years, Agile has drifted away from its original purpose, taking a different path than what was envisioned. Rather than empowering teams and fostering true adaptability, it has often been misunderstood and misapplied, leading to inefficiencies and processes that don’t reflect its core values.

?? Why Agile? – The book explains in a clear and compelling way why Agile matters, how it improves software development, and why it’s essential for delivering real value.

?? Practical guidelines for real agility – Clean Agile isn’t just about theory; it also provides actionable insights on how to be truly Agile, beyond frameworks and buzzwords.

If you feel that Agile in your company is just a set of ceremonies without real impact, this book is a must-read! It’s a great reminder of what true agility looks like.
