It’s the agile mindset that matters for local government - getting local government to do agile is difficult - “Local government culture is heavily business case driven, where funding is unlocked by making promises around outcomes in one, two or more years’ time. There’s also decades of learned behaviour to overcome, where people are just used to things being ‘finished’ and having projects plans with lots of lovely milestones in them.” And: “I like to boil down the agile mindset to three core, very simple ideas. That work is better when: (1) We break big problems down into smaller, more manageable one (2) We get working things into the hands of real users as quickly as possible, and act on their feedback (3) We work collaboratively in multi-disciplinary teams”
