It's funny that "Individuals and interactions over processes and tools" is the first of the tenets of agile and the most ignored. I think most people's frustrations with agile are from people worrying too much about processes and tools.

Scrum/Agile has 2 advantages over waterfall.

  • things that don't work get stopped early, without stigma.

  • the team works together towards an overall goal, it is not individuals working on individual tasks.

The "agile" tools themselves rarely encourage either of these practices.

Jira

  • assigns tasks to individuals.
  • treats closed and cancelled differently.
