Agile Culture: A Definition
28 November 2020
Scott M. Graffius is the author of two award-winning books on agile project management, Agile Scrum: Your Quick Start Guide with Step-by-Step Instructions and Agile Transformation: A Brief Story of How an Entertainment Company Developed New Capabilities and Unlocked Business Agility to Thrive in an Era of Rapid Change. This short post shares Scott's definition of agile culture.
“Culture is defined as the set of shared attitudes, values, and practices that characterizes a group or organization. An organization has an agile culture when its environment is inclusive of attitudes, values, and practices which enables it — and its teams and individuals — to manifest being adaptive, flexible, and responsive to complexity, uncertainty, and change.” — Scott M. Graffius
