Philosophy

A broad guiding system of thought that shapes approaches, perspectives, and methodologies but is not itself a method, practice, or principle (e.g., Social Technologies, DevOps, Agile, Lean Thinking).

Overview

The Philosophy category defines the guiding principles behind Agile, DevOps, and Lean. It shapes thought and strategy, rather than focusing on execution.

Scope

It explores why methodologies work, focusing on Agile values, Lean efficiency, DevOps culture, complexity theory, and evidence-based decision-making. Discussions emphasise organisational behaviour, adaptability, and continuous improvement.

Key Topics

Exclusions

It avoids specific practices, tools, and anecdotal experiences that do not connect to broader philosophical frameworks.

This category challenges and refines how teams and leaders think, ensuring agility is driven by strategy, not just process.
