The agile practice is only one of the many iterative methods devised by development leaders in the past. Fundamentally speaking, iterative methods opposed the overly-incremental approach of the waterfall method by using a multitude of smaller phases. These phases encompass the main parts of the waterfall method (requirement, design, implementation, verification, and maintenance); but done so in smaller, more frequent increments.

Are you frustrated by PM books that assume that the PM has a blank canvas, when most of the ...

Companies are continually looking for people with the ability to work as a team. It is normal, since your own survival depends on that ability. But you know well that, in practice, most teams are not such. The bosses never admit their mistakes. Neither do team members. And, if someone does it, the boss and co-workers beat them up. So, everyone thinks: "better to stay silent." Nobody presents new ideas or participates in decisions. And no one commits to the objectives and results. There is no team, but a jungle, an "every man for himself." When trust is destroyed, everything goes to hell. ...
