Communication

Communication in agile projects is often different from communication in non-agile projects.

Agile communication aims to be:

• • public (vs private or secret) [public within the entire team, not public as in news media]

  • early (vs delayed)

  • spoken, preferably in person (vs email)

  • free from judgment (vs assigning blame)

  • osmotic (vs selectively broadcast)

  • flat (vs hierarchical)

A significant enabler of agile communication is the Supportive Environment pillar (this pillar does not yet exist).
