Agile as an umbrella term originating in the software development community that integrates three different concepts that all emerged together and continue to influence how might all better work and learn together.
The Agile Experience where commonly-faced problems find fresh solutions that are hard to understand but easy to experience.
The Agile Mindset where one learns to look for similarly fresh solutions in diverse activities.
The Agile Practices where specific solutions are assembled into a framework supported by available training and coaching.
Agile has a complex history going back several decades. Even at its founding, many of Agile’s solutions were well known but not yet widely applied together.
