¿The Agile Era We Deserved (But Never Got)
Not a guide. A warning.
Agile was supposed to save us. ¿¿¿¿
Collaboration. Transparency. Adaptability.
Velocity-whatever that was supposed to mean. ¿
The Agile Manifesto came down from the mountaintop like divine revelation. It promised deliverance from Gantt charts and waterfall hellscapes. For a brief, shining sprint, it felt like maybe... just maybe... we were on to something. ¿
Then came the certifications. ¿
The consultants. ¿
The Agile Coaches who've never shipped a product but know exactly how you should. ¿
Stand-ups. Ceremonies. Story points.
Sticky notes... so many sticky notes.
Soon, “velocity” became a made-up metric to justify real burnout. The daily stand-up became a hostage situation. The backlog turned into a landfill. And Sprint Planning? More like Sprint Panicking. ¿¿¿¿¿
What began as a grassroots dev movement turned into a corporate religion-with artifacts, rituals, and a priesthood of Scrum Masters reciting sacred Jira incantations. ¿¿
This audiobook isn't here to fix Agile. It's here to tell the truth about it. Loudly. Sarcastically. And with just enough bitterness to keep you company between retrospectives. ¿
¿ This is your survival log.
¿ Your group therapy session.
¿ Your cathartic laugh in the break room.
If you've ever screamed internally during a sprint demo, sent a meme instead of a status update, or wondered if maybe we were better off with a Gantt chart and some pizza... this one's for you.
¿ You're not broken. You're just Agile-adjacent.
