Agile and Lean

  • We look for the same outcome using both Agile and Lean. I like to

compare them as siblings. Sharing similarities and completing each

  • ther.
  • Both are results of studying organizations and teams who had great

success, modeling it to create replicable methods for success. Agile from a software organization and Lean from production companies.

  • Today it is common to see them together in both knowledge work

and production work.
