Arguing Agile
We're arguing about agile so that you don't have to!
We seek to better prepare you to deal with real-life challenges by presenting both sides of the real arguments you will encounter in your professional career.
On this podcast, working professionals explore topics and learnings from their experiences and share the stories of Agilists at all stages of their careers. We seek to do so while maintaining an unbiased position from any financial interest.

AA223 - People Don't Quit Jobs, They Quit Bosses! Part II
People don't quit jobs - they quit bad bosses... OR DO THEY?!?
We had so many untouched debate points from our first episode that it would have been a crime - A CRIME - to throw it all away. So we decided to do a part 2!
That's right, we're back and Brian tries to make his argument with all new points - are we blaming individual managers for systemic failures? Listen or watch as we (Product Manager Brian Orlando and Enterprise Business Agility Coach Om Patel) debate all new points and explore how broken systems may create the very behaviors we blame individuals for, including:
- The Stanford Prison experiment
- Toxic performers "too valuable" to fire
- HR's role in systemic issues
- The theater of data without action
- Generational workplace differences
- The cost of fixing systems
- Revolution vs Evolution
Whether you're in software development and dealing with impossible commitments, a team lead navigating toxic culture, or an executive wondering why your engagement surveys aren't fixing anything - this conversation just might challenge how you think about your workplace dysfunction.
