Values | Glossary

 

Definition

The Agile Manifesto inscribes a set of four values that are both people-centric and results-driven. Namely:

  • Individuals and Interactions
  • Working Software
  • Responding to change
  • Customer collaboration

Each Agile methodology has its’ own way of implementing these values, but they are consistently relied upon, to deliver high-quality software.
