The Great Agile Heist, Dead Sprint Radio, Ep 2.15, Season Finale

The Great Agile Heist | Season 2 Finale | Dead Sprint Radio ft. David Borzello They've been doing Agile for years. They just stopped calling it that. An AWS executive stood in front of a room and preached small teams, autonomous work, decomposed backlogs, and iterative delivery — and never once said the word Agile. And we caught it. In this Season 2 finale, I sit down with my fellow Forge alumni and author David Borzello to close out the season the only way it should end — by exposing the greatest rebranding job in the history of work. David co-wrote Who Killed Agile and is back with his brand new book Sanity at Scale — the book he wishes someone had handed him twenty years ago. We talk about hero traps, junk drawer backlogs, the three Cs that actually make teams work, and why scaling your broken system just gives you a bigger broken system. This one hits different because David and I have been in the trenches together. We're not theorizing. We lived it. Agile is not broken. We are. But at least now we know who's been taking credit for our work. 📗 Grab Sanity at Scale on Amazon — free on Kindle launch weekend: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0H41M87KJ?... 🎙️ Follow David — Better Ways of Working: 🌐 betterwaysofworking.com 💼   / daveborzillo   🎁 Are you invisible in today's market?
