    No it’s a set of tools you can use to run a project.

    My point is that a lot of people use “agile” to mean not planning or don’t put guard rails on scope and they fail. That’s not agile, it’s just bad PM

      Agreed.

      Being Agile is being flexible. To do that you need to plan for multiple contingencies. Resulting in more planning, not none.

        “agile” is being flexible. Being “Agile” more often than not means your company’s incompetent management paid some hack consultants to come in and bless your flavor of stupid bureaucracy as “Agile”.
