Great article by Johanna Rothman…makes you take a step back and think for a second about where we contribute to this, and how to fix it. Maybe we should hold an agile practitioner open retro using TRIZ to see how we can help?
Where is "agile" headed?
@JayH, please tell me more about what an open retro using TRIZ would help. I’m not opposed. I don’t understand. I need more words, please. Maybe with an example. Thanks.

@johannarothman see the link below. Imagine a room full of practitioners discussing the question “What can we as agile practitioners do in order to make sure we ensure that “agile” becomes a commodity instead of the transformative enlightenment it should be?” I think we’d end up with some insights into what the industry is doing wrong, and maybe some ideas on how to right the ship.
Or maybe i’m too optimistic

I suspect TRIZ would work better inside an organization rather than outside, but yes. I often ask, “What can make this worse?” when I’m assessing a problem. (https://createadaptablelife.com/2018/08/whats-the-worst-thing-you-could-do.html)
We might be able to work for the good of the industry, but the forces against enlightenment are fierce. And, an enlightened transformation requires work. What a lot of people sell is not-work.
