As you can guess, I’m rather keen on spreading the word that it’s not enough to merely acknowledge that Agile and CMMI can work together, it’s time to start actually doing something to actively implement them together. In fact, I’m going so far as to say
due to their respective points of view, instead of beefing up either of them to account for things the other doesn’t do, we ought to be using *both*!
And, if you’re not using both, you’re going to be left behind, because those that successfully implement the benefits of both Agile *and* CMMI will be unstoppable.

My professional passion is to build high performance organizations out of companies motivated to be lean, agile, and achieve world-class results. My best clients are companies who have the courage, leadership, insight, foresight and discipline to be the best places to work, the best value to their customers and the best performing for their shareholders. I take a tough love approach and, frankly, have little patience for executives who *want* these things but expect to achieve them without putting in any effort or making any changes.
