sitegeist radical - goodbye fuss

In the final episode of its five-part series on Process Management, the "Kontakter" presents several supposedly unusual approaches.

In the amazing finale, our approach is really radical compared to the big agencies. It gives us a bit of a James Dean feeling. sitegeist you old revolutionaries!

Sure, the big players are trying to look “agile”—because it’s trending and helps with recruiting. But then you see the details: “Scrum Light”, 80-page(!) handbooks with process descriptions and checklists, Discussions like “When is agile the right choice, and when should we go waterfall?”

That just shows how far behind most of them still are. And how often they take the client’s briefing at face value.

Concepts such as Scrum are not a panacea. In some places, they simply prove to be unsuitable. Unsuitable for important customers, the project stature or the personnel structure.

Exactly! Yes, no, it's clear..

There's always some money- and time-consuming old-school reason for sticking to the familiar business folklore.

And so they're still doing the project rain dance in the hope that at least this time it was a clever idea to define all the project details at exactly the point in time when you're guaranteed to know the least about the project: at the beginning.

Question for the waterfall faction:
What percentage of your online projects are cheaper and go live earlier than planned?

Think about it.

Just do it!
