Agile and Lean are now mainstream: more and more development work is being done more or less in an agile way, and for good reason. Agile thinking and practices have brought organizations financial savings, transparency, better collaboration for teams, and more efficient ways of working.

By utilizing agility, organizations can achieve better customer satisfaction, improved value delivery and higher quality. It enables them to be more focused and flexible in their operations, and to use the best tools to achieve their goals. Additionally, it enhances internal and external collaboration and better steering towards goals. Giving the opportunity to make a difference and actively participate in the way people work, also increases employee satisfaction.

The most popular frameworks in agile landscape are scrum and Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe®), but others such as Kanban, DevOps, and Lean Six Sigma are also actively used.
