In the end, the project manager is taken away to an asylum where he continues to tell the inmates, "I want to run an agile project."

that comment nearly killed me

An all-time classic. Nothing has been closer to my professional life than this video.

The video has a message. Most comments about the video miss the point of how difficult it is to change old ways. It takes time and a lot of effort to introduce new ideas and the video demonstrates some of the roadblocks that are likely to be encountered when trying to improve business processes in enterprise environments.

I think the man's repetition of his dream to run an agile project is just a take on humour which you completely missed. EDIT: I could be wrong, I am autistic and want to run an agile project.

New ideas and change are not necessarily helpful. Agile turns create people into factory workers and creates an aggressive atmosphere.

Take a shot every time he says: "I want to run an agile project"

Simply a game that cannot be won

Why have I only just found this? Next time someone tells me they want to be an Agile coach - I’m sending them this and asking them to reconsider their life choices.

I want to build an agile pineapple.

So much truth. Everyone in the modern work world should watch. Worth it!! #agil #agile

Great work Julian, love the messaging behind this, and great animation to bring it to life as well. Looking forward to further episodes.

I appreciate that everyone, even the agile guy, sounds so mechanical and passion-free that even trying to do good work is a painful, laborious process from both sides.

An excellent presentation on the Agile method of Business Analysis! Thank you for sharing.

This was not about running Agile projects, it was about the obstacles and the politics of corporate entities and their reluctance, inability to appreciate anything that is not "according to the book". That it particularly applies to Agile transformation is also true. The, "I want to run an Agile project.", statement being shorthand for the whole raft of painful explanation that is undertaken; the cartoon would have been several hours long to have inserted in full description of scrum / XP etc.

I really WANTED to run an Agile project! But it bombed because everyone was unable to be flexible enough to adapt to it.

Great going Julian and Carson.

i dont know if this is suppposed to be funny butI'm sat here in tears LOLLOLLOL

I love this animation, it clearly shows the difference between Agile and Waterfall from my perspective. The best of them all for visual learners like me. I just love it

I want to run an agile project No I want to run an agile project No I want to run an agile project I want to run an agile project I want to run an agile project

Excellent lesson in the challenges of implementing agile in the context of organizational policies and practices which assume a waterall approach.

Ja, Ja," but I write great code by myself", funny, we all think we do until we are reviewed by others, then we figure out that we can always learn and improve. Good video.

Excellent Video.Thanks

Oh, and the binary conversion module was written by a novice programmer coding in C. He was an ex-air force pilot, flew C5-A's, did the Ethiopia/Somali airlift circa 1992... It was his first shot at coding in C. I let him code for two weeks w/ a 21 days book. I then taught him about unit testing & coding small & he had a working FAST system after 2 more weeks. We fleshed it out bit by bit, hacking as we went. The VP laughed his ass off, I didn't even know WTF a bookkeeping sanity check was....

This video speaks the truth. Agile may not be the best solution for every situation, but works excedingly well for todays generation of SaaS. Why should it be so dificult to do(implement) the right thing? Three cheers for all those project leaders who work towards building better software development environments.

I want to run an agile project.

awesome animation.. sweet message!

Carson, this is too good and very very realistic

This is the most accurate documentary I've ever seen :D

Carson, can't wait for the next "episode". you should do one on the Product Owner,etc..

this could be a southpark episode

LOL, that was also my thought. When you don't watch the video, but only listen to the audio then you get this impression.

"No, I want to run an agile project!" His long process to complete his request to run an agile project is often too true in the workplace.

HAHAHAHA sooo hilarious! thanks for explaining this topic in such an oddly humorous way!

legend says he still wants to run an agile project to this day.

I want to run an agile project

This is actually hysterical... "I WANT TO RUN AN AGILE PROJECT!" lol

Excellent!

Good job man...

NO! I want to run an Agile project foolish Mortal!!!!

haha this is fuckin' awesome. "No...I want to run an..." hahaha made my day

Just have to love this one... I just laughed and laughed. But not sure my tears were from laughing or from the actual big-company-process real-life experiences :-) Love It !

very good example!

Classic but still accurate. Only the words change a bit.

Loved it! )) The "Agile Project man" occasionally sounds like Leonard Nimoy! ))

but I want to run an agile project! :)

is there a follow up video where the PM goes postal ? :)

This is a great video! Is there a way to get this video sped up so that I can present it to my project management class?

In the "settings" of the video (right down corner in full screen) you can set playing speed

This rings very true. Dev team thinks the goal of the company is to promote the religion of Agile ironically not being flexible about implementing a flexible methodology.

this is great - I laughed out loud about the SAS 70 controls.

It was very maintainable. It was written first as pseudocode, with a RAD dbms toolset. It was maintained by several subsequent developers & even ported into C++. We discovered that we could develop more quickly if we would pseudocode an entire process narrative & then drill down into the stack from there. We abstracted better, we refactored better, & the systems didn't break.

This is why the only way to set up Agile is in a separate business unit that has adjusted governance to act like a seperate business with all of these functions at arms length with the funding already allocated for outcomes, it's really that simple.

this agile guy is awesome!

welcome to my life.

perfect

I want to run an Agile project-- I heard this statement at least a 100 times :-D

Brilliant and true. Just goes to show that you need buy in from all areas with an organization before you can implement Agile.

NO!! I WANT TO RUN AN AGILE PROJECT! BUT, I WANT TO RUN AN AGILE PROJECT! SO, I WANT TO RUN AN AGILE PROJECT!

Hilarious. The ending line summarizes what many of us may have experienced, "but, I want to run an Agile project..."

I've been involved with a few companies that run Agile projects relatively succesful. However, I just can't stand them from an architectural perspective. Through out time the architecture starts to suffer and becomes increasingly complex. This is becuase most companies don't want to spend the right time to refactor a set of complex constructs that spand beyound 1 or 2 sprints.

pls pls pls let him run an agile project

.....for some reason I got this thing to where I want to run an Agile project now.....

"I don't have any more time for you today." Where have I heard that one before?

Long time ago I sat down & wrote a data warehouse/mart (circa 1997). Did it in 3 months, by myself, had it cranking thru 1 GB/day of phone log data for traffic analysis, etc. It had to crank through mounds of binary switch, then converted ASCII, data on an already existing 486 Win NT4 box w/ RAID5 SCSI. Did it in 16bit FoxPro, on a $25,000 budget. Then the IT Dept showed up. They brought in Oracle & a "PLAN." They shat $2 million down the hole trying to create the same thing & it didn't work.

You should make a club mix song using this video and... "I WANT TO RUN AN AGILE PROJECT"

story of life

Place funny one-liner that makes me look like I'm an agile developer here.

VERY GOOD, I want to run an agile project, to!

wait what does he want to run?

What program was used to develop this animation?

So that's all I have to do?

Is your stapler a stakeholder?

*in disappointed voice* Oh.... You're the "agile guy"..... =(

You sir, must be a relic of the Cobal generation. I have been on Agile projects for almost a decade and have yet to have a failed project. I have worked with many contractors who used waterfall, and all but one of those projects failed! Please explain how getting itterations to the customers sooner causes failure. The way I see it, it develops a far superior product because the team is able to actually react to change, vs. delivering a useless brick. If it's so bad, why does MS use it?

BUT I WANT TO RUN AN AGILE PROJECT

@saadatorama Yes, every time I hear him say "I want to run an agile project", I want to reply "and I want to bring my cat to work".

L O L 20 points, value from this video delivered to me, the consumer

No, I want to run an agile project...

I WANT TO RUN AN AGILE PROJECT!

Good video, but it isn't show agile performances . Good if compared with another process model and show how the agile is better than ordinary process. By the way these sounds reminds me the sw "Talk it". I think you typed words on it and click "talk it button" to play :)

!! Oh please, let me also run a agile project !! :-)

You are now unable to hear "I want to run an Agile Project" as a normal person.

Good luck with waterfall

I have had all of these experiences but release management is by far the worst

Hi. I want to run an Agile Project......but I want to run an Agile project.

Bureaucracy

You need to pair with the bloke who smells like an ashtray.

But I want to run an Agile project,

0:53 boss man needs to assign a deputy to engage with the agile project dev team every day & bring a long a nice chunk of end users. I think THIS SATIRE IS GONNA BORE ME.

I don't want to run an agile project...

Programmers really do smell.

@codematrix This is my problem with the whole "agile development". One needs time to design and think about the architecture of the whole system, then you can get to development. Also, why deliver untested code to customers? It works in some cases, but not all projects lend themselves to breaking up in smaller tasks that you can deliver tested every 2 weeks or so. Anyway, in this video the guy isn't making his argument convincing "I want to" is hardly good rationale.

This is just creepy!

My brain hurts,,

I am a robot, do what I say!

Oh so you're the agile guy? LMAO!

LMAO 😂😂😂

my ict teacher was watching this in break.... o.0 it was impossible to work

in a real world, he is never going to get to "run an ajile project" by saying 'i want to run an agile project's

8:01 I don't think my man should be trying to bottom-up this shit. if he's really going to help the organization, he should have the approval of someone higher up the food chain. someone in top-level management needs to send out a signal to "give the agile guy a little room to operate". this is excruciating.

Poor guy :(! Let him run an agile project for god's sake.

hahahahhahaahhaha --- i want to run an agile project

HAHAHAHAHA genious

THIS GUY IS KILLING ME!!! ARGH!!!!!!!!!!

Agile can actively manage risks and simultaneously add value to the business while completely meeting the requirements of regulators, auditors and agents of control. What amazes me is that this way of thinking is as unbalanced in approach as bureaucratic nonsense. This robot keeps stating that he "understands" needs that he constantly tries to avoid with exemptions and conversations without ever taking the time to show that the concerns of the business as a whole will be met. Good job tangential monotone animation....
