Agile methods such as Scrum, Kanban, XP and DevOps have proven to be particularly suitable for the development of new products enabling rapid adaptation in highly competitive environments and projects with a high degree of uncertainty. 

Agile is especially successful in culturally appropriate contexts with the possibility of building products incrementally. It is based on a specific mentality and a set of best practices for high-performance multidisciplinary teams, allowing them to better orient themselves towards the needs of their clients, reduce to-market times, increase flexibility, make continuous improvements to working methods and increase motivation in the organisation.

The Agile paradigm simplifies complex environments and is particularly useful for resolving situations in which you are not delivering what you need to the customer, when deliveries are too long, costs skyrocket or quality becomes unacceptable, when you need to be able to react to competition, when team morale is low and rotation is high, when you need to identify and solve inefficiencies systematically or when you want to work using a process specialised in product development.

Agile methods are the standard for work in both start-ups and large companies, especially in the most competitive companies in the world (Google, Amazon, SAP, Spotify, Salesforce, etc.). With its origins in software development, they are spreading to all kinds of industries (BBVA, ING, Telefónica, Roche, Boeing, Tesla, Ferrari, BBC), becoming the method of choice in the digital transformation of organisations.
