Unfortunately and as far as I can tell we're still not there. I'm trying to do my part in how I push for those topics when working with teams and organizations. So many things to help with on the practice level and making developer teams function properly.
How to get started with putting in place an Agile approach in a team? Clearly structure helps in the beginning. One caveat of the article though: don't read this as having to respect a book to the letter forever, it's merely a starting point.
This one is more self-help than I'm usually comfortable with... somehow something rung true to me with it. It's indeed a good reminder that changing habits takes a while. It's an exercise in patience and there are good reasons for it.
Definitely this. Listen and write down issues before you start to complain. There might be reasons why things are as they are. Take the time to understand them and refine to have a better feedback.
This is a nice way to frame the three activities. They help people progress but in different ways.
Definitely this, I too often see people trying to just power through. Being responsible of something doesn't mean you do it all alone, on the contrary. If you're struggling with it look for help, it can take many forms including coaching.
Excellent article in French from one of the most influential people of the agile community in France. He delivers an interesting story about how state agencies started to apply some of the agile values and principles but how unfortunately this wave is already receding.
Interesting set of patterns to maybe get a clue at what a particular behavior is hiding.
Interesting coaching approach for teams. It's indeed hard to get teams to stick to some of the difficult development practices... By mixing several approaches, this looks like she's onto something here.
