Agile Software Development without Illusions
Agile Software Development without Illusions
Agility was supposed to make software development faster, simpler, and more effective. Too often, it creates the opposite: unnecessary complexity, endless meetings, and an obsession with frameworks. This book shows that it doesen't have to be that way. Drawing on more than 25 years of international experience, and guided by the Swiss values of precision, reliability, and pragmatism, Dr. Siegfried Isele shares practical lessons from real software projects across Europe, the United States, the Middle East, and Asia. Through honest stories, practical guidance, and a touch of dry humor, he demonstrates why the principles behind successful Agile teams are becoming even more important in the age of Artificial Intelligence, and explores what AI can learn from Agile, and what Agile can gain from AI. This is an honest guide for professionals who want results, not illusions.
