Pada saat buku ini ditulis, Agile merupakan ilmu yang relatif baru dikenal di Indonesia. Memang sejarah Agile belum lama, baru kurang lebih 18 tahun, sejak dicanangkan pada tahun 2001 di Utah, USA. Ilmu ini mulanya dipakai oleh para software developer namun dalam perkembangannya telah merambah ke bidang non-IT yang berkaitan dengan pengembangan produk-produk atau jasa-jasa baru dan bahkan juga diterapkan di bidang support IT (maintenance). Mengapa Agile? Agile diciptakan untuk mengatasi kegagalan sebuah sistem manajemen proyek yang lebih mementingkan aspek benda (proses dan output) daripada interaksi manusia (tim). Manifesto pertama mengatakan: “Individuals and interactions over processes and tools”. Interaksi dengan manusia lebih dipentingkan dan bisa diselaraskan dengan konsep Pawongan Bali yang merupakan bagian penting dari konsep kehidupan Tri Hita Karana. Konsep Pawongan mengharuskan adanya pemeliharaan harmoni dan keseimbangan diantara sesama manusia dan bagaimana menciptakan hubungan yang harmonis. Didalam Agile, semua keputusan dibuat oleh tim, bukan oleh seorang individu. Manifesto selanjutnya memfokuskan pada “Customer Collaboration over Contract Negotiation”. Sekali lagi, kolaborasi dengan manusia (customer) lebih dipentingkan daripada negosiasi kontrak. “Working software over comprehensive documentation”. Untuk menciptakan working software diperlukan feedback yang konstan dari customer. Responding to change over following a plan. Melayani perubahan daripada mengikuti rencana. Agile sangat cocok untuk menangani segala sesuatu yang baru dimana SCOPE tidak jelas dan tidak ada record untuk past performance. Misalkan, pada saat Gojek didirikan, Gojek tidak bisa mengacu pada jasa yang telah ada karena mereka yang pertama. Amazon menggunakan Agile untuk terus mengembangkan perusahaannya, yang awalnya hanya menjual buku dan sekarang telah merambah kebidang lain-lainnya. Dunia telah berubah menjadi VUCA – Vulnerable (Rawan), Uncertainty (tidak pasti), Complex (Rumit) dan Ambiguous (Tidak Jelas). Sistem manajemen tradisional manajemen proyek terlalu kaku untuk menghadapi hal-hal yang baru ini. Untuk mensukseskan Agile, maka diperlukan seorang Agile Coach yang telah berpengalaman untuk memandu proses penerapan agile yang dianjurkan untuk melalui beberapa fase: Pemahaman, Inkubasi, Penetasan, dan Pendewasaan. Jika fase ini dipercepat, implementasi Agile tidak sustainable dan akhirnya akan gagal. Oleh karena itu, peranan eksekutif sangat penting didalam pemahaman Agile: Agile bukan hanya pengganti sistem tradisional manajemen proyek – Agile adalah suatu pendekatan yang ramping dan membutuhkan kecerdasan dan keseriusan yang intense. Agile Done Well akan mentransformasikan suatu organisasi menjadi sebuah organisasi berbasis team yang tulus untuk lebih produktif didalam mencapai tujuan organisasi.
